Dearest Jenny & Randy, I am so so sorry to know of your pain. I was so privileged to take care of her last year. Ms Doris told me all the stories of our people & their history. Think on this chorus & take it to heart. "No more night. No more pain. No more fear. Never crying again. Praises to the Great I Am. We will live in the light of the Risen Lamb " And so she is! Someday together forever. Hugs my friends.

She was my Aunt. She was my Mom´s sister. Aunt Doris took care of my Mom when she was a baby. She still has the Stroller . Every time I went to her house. She would tell me how much see loved her little sister.Taking care of her. She loved us. Always wanted to feed us when we come up. She said I love eating, & I want someone to eat with me. I would always get up & do the dishes, she would say leave them things for later. I would say Dad always said that we would clean up if you cooked . We both love sunflowers. & pictures. I know she´s in a better place. I know she´s happy, no swelling no problems with her body. No pain .

To Doris's entire family, I send you my deepest sympathy in the loss of this fine Christian woman. I didn't know her, but heard so much about her and she certainly was a woman who lived out her faith. May she rest in the arms of her Lord and Savior for eternity. May He wrap his loving arms around all of you. I send you big hugs, Connie and Bruce, Aaron, Corey and Tina. Much love to all of you.
