I am so sorry for your loss of Doris. I will always think of her as a loving and nurturing woman that was passionate about her beliefs. Each time I see someone smile I will think of her. Keith, I am praying for you and your family. Remember, she may be physically gone but she is still with all of you. ( I certainly am glad that I met you and Doris while attending Trezevant.

I didn't know Mrs. Doris but I know her daughter Andrea who is kind, intelligent, determined, generous, and loving. I know that kind of spirit is nurtured by a love, and in this case, the very special love a mother. I am sorry for the loss the Babb family and everyone who knew Mrs. Doris.

I don't know how to say goodbye like this. I thought I'd see you again. If I could talk to you, I'd tell you so many things. That you were beautiful. That I should have been kinder to you, as you were so kind to everyone. I miss you so much. I'm angry at myself for believing that I could call you later, see you in a few months, take my time. The truth is, time is never guaranteed and I never understood that until now. You will never see me get married, or meet my children. I'm sorry.
