Years ago, as a server, I used to wait on Bryce, Doris and Lori. Back then, Lori worked in the Deli at K-Mart. I used to take my daughter in there to get a frozen coke when she was little. Doris, Bryce and Lori were one of the sweetest families I ever had the pleasure of knowing. Rest in peace. Love and prayers for all who knew and loved her (them). Terri Couse

I always enjoyed Doris's company, whether she was fixing my hair, welcoming me to her yearly rummages, of most recently...greeting me with her warm smile at Meijer's grocery. What a warm and friendly person...she will be greatly missed.
Our sincere sympathy....Diann & Ervin Hall

I am very sad to hear of the death of my cousin, Doris. I have fond memories of growing up with her, I feel sad we lost touch with each other after our high school years.
Please accept my sincere sorrow at her passing and may she Rest In Peace.
