Dawn and Sharon, Doris was a beautiful lady through and through and we will miss her. I do believe she is with the angels and will be with us in spirit on all the Dancing with the Stars Monday night get togethers!

The loss of a beautiful and elegant lady. We met in the late 1970's when I worked at the Highway Department in Wichita Falls. We continued our friendship when I moved to Graham in the 90's. I always admired her style and class. She was the epitome of southern charm.

Sharon and family, you're in my thoughts and prayers. Remember, "When you lose some one you love, you gain an Angel you know". Met your mother when I first joined Mary Isham Keith Chapter, DAR.

Doris you were always so gracious and friendly. Loved all your formal dresses, they were beautiful. I will miss you but know you are in a better place, and someday we will meet again.
