Deb and family; your mom was an incredible woman of great wisdom; Her writings and poetry were captivating. Doris could put words to paper in a manner that was deeply profound and made one think. It seems Doris lived her life to the fullest, and I know her family meant everything to her. It was so neat about the book of poems. We so enjoyed Doris at Mythmakers and she was just an awesome person all the way around...she will not be forgotton.

Deb and Jim,
Know that you and Ted and the rest of the family are in our thoughts and prayers this holiday week. No matter how "prepared" you think you are for the passing of a parent, it's never what you expect.
Your wonderfully written obituary for Doris tells of a full life, a successful journey among a loving family. Good bless from me, Cynthia and the boys.
