Remembering dear Doris on this day. Leah Jachnuk Schweitzer

We just discovered that Doris had passed in 2017. Words can't express our heartbreak. She and Abe were good friends--I met Doris in the Jewish Literature class I taught for many years at Leo Baeck temple in West L.A., , and our friendship grew from there. The Siegels loved going to the Ojai Music Festival, and persuaded us to join them, which we did for many years, and still attend and support something that became a defining moment in our lives. We were blessed to know Doris and Abe.

Doris was a wonderful, caring woman. With all her accomplishments, she was still humble. I recall many parties and dinners at her house, always elegant and upbeat. She supported the arts and attended as many concerts and plays as she could. I miss her delightful wit and her powerful presence.

Doris was an elegant woman and good friend. Despite severe health issues, she hosted dinners and parties, attended concerts, plays, and Osher classes, and remained active until the very end. Her spirit will live on in the groups she supported and helped create.
