Doris Mae Belfore, 89, passed away peacefully and surrounded by family on January 19th, 2024, at Rutland Regional Medical Center after a brief illness. She is survived by her daughters, Linda Gallipo and Lisa Fredette, her son, Joseph "Sam" Ridlon, her grandchildren; Jody Whittington, Meg Munger, James Howland, Seth Howland, Emily Geary and Nathan Ridlon, and many great grandchildren. She is predeceased by her parents; Gyle and Mable Josselyn, her sister Joyce Grady, brother Gyle Josselyn Jr, and son Scott Ridlon.
She was our true matriarch; she was an incredibly strong and courageous woman. She was not afraid to tell anyone exactly what was on her mind, which was of her most humorous qualities. She lived a life of intense love for her family which will endure. She will be missed beyond measure, and we will keep her love in our hearts forever.
As per Doris's request, no funeral or memorial service will be held. Burial will be held at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction of Aldous Funeral Home
