What an incredible, beautiful (inside and out), intelligent and talented lady! I was grateful to call her "friend". She was such an encourager and definitely left a blessing and Mark on this world.

I loved her so much! Doris and I shared a special sisterhood that was ours alone. We had so much fun as Dallas Tap Dazzlers. I´m grateful for all my wonderful memories! Jeri Edwards
