I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I had the great experience and pleasure of working with Doris at GATX. She was a friend and mentor and always had a positive word. We last visited three years ago and I cherish her memory.

I am sad to hear of Doris's death. Peter Anderson was my godfather and I carried the Family name of Anderson on by naming my first daughter Abbe Anderson Kister.
