I worked with Doris at Farm Bureau Insurance in Hobart for 20 years. She always had a joke or funny limerick to share to brighten the day. Doris really enjoyed watching me grow up from a 21 year old kid via my life events marriage and my family of 3 kids. May her memory be a blessing.

Sorry to read about Doris. I knew her from church, and always enjoyed visiting with her. I’m sorry I won’t be able to attend her service. Janet Govert

Doris was a very sweet lady. I took care of her husband, John, many years ago at Hobart Hospital.

Doris will be missed. We both loved her and her sense of humor. She was a very caring and thoughtful person. Jack counted on her for help with the police department community events and she was always there. She would make phone calls to seniors who lived alone to make sure they were safe and also worked effortlessly providing police newsletters for the community. Our memories will be with us forever.

So sorry Rich for your loss. I got to know your sister when she sold your parents house to my son. I also learned she went out with my uncle who also graduated from Tolleston. She will be missed.
