To all of Doris' family,
Although we can't be there with you as you grieve, you're in our thoughts from afar. Our heartfelt sympathies on your loss. A more loving, helpful, wonderful person could not be found. Always a smile and a good word...never knew a single person who did not love her. She was a big part of our lives during our time in Medfield...so like a "second mom"!
We will cherish our good memories of her forever, and hope that your good memories bring you comfort during this sad, difficult time. With our love and sympathy...
Kevin and Debby
