So very saddened by the passing of this very dear lady! My family thought of her as part of our own family... Very blessed to have had her as a neighbor for several years and we will miss her very much! We also cherish our friendships made with her family over the years. Although we often had some serious conversations about her favorite topics, she always had a way of putting a smile on our faces...

Prayers to her family and friends!!
RIP Ms. Doris
We love you!!
