Not sure what to say?

Missing you so much Aunt Doris! I cant believe it has been 3 years. Rest with the angels. I love you!

You were the best Godmother I could have ever asked for. You never forgot me and I will never forget you. I love and miss you. Until we meet again❤

Doris, your laughter and fun loving attitude towards life will be missed. The memories we have will be kept close in our hearts. God Bless You!

She was one in a million. What a special lady Doris was. Always with a joke or story and always upbeat. A true gift from God.
She will be missed by her parish family.
They're having a grand time in Heaven now that Doris is there to liven things up!

Doris meant a lot in our life. The song "here I am Lord" comes to mind. She taught so much over the years. How to laugh,how to enjoy life and what we have.
We think and thought of her often in our daily living. With her help she brought a smile through all kinds of issues to many people without even her or us knowing what they were dealing with.
She inspired us to do our best and let God do the rest. We know she got her one wish at the end of her life.
I am sure she will be in...

God Bless you
