Dear Calwell Family, So sorry for your loss, but rejoicing in the knowledge Doris had a long, healthy and happy life. Prayers and thoughts for you remembering special times together, and finding peace.

So sorry about Doris' passing. She was so close to that 100 mark. Always enjoyed visiting with her and Bill, especially since we moved to SE Missouri and would meet them for lunch at Aldersgate.
