I remember Doris when she worked at the Cherryville Post Office (when it was the former Johnson General Store). We would talk every time I stopped for the mail. I liked Doris a lot. She gave me a lot of good advice and I am forever grateful for that. My deepest sympathies to her family. May God bless.
