Doris Sue DeFoor

Doris Sue DeFoor, age 88 of Calhoun, GA, passed peacefully on July 16, 2025 after declining health.

Doris was born on October 20, 1936, an only child of Lois Wright Jacks and Arthur Ranal Jacks, who preceded her in death. Although she grew up an only child, she had cousins that treated her as their sister. Doris was a volunteer at Advent Health from 2002 – 2021. In 2007, she received Auxilian of the year award. Being a volunteer is very meaningful to Doris. She once said, "it gives me an opportunity to be helpful, a sense of being needed, a time to work with people who care, and most important, I believe this is God's work." She loved to help family members find their loved ones. She enjoyed helping anyone that needed help. She was a member of Fellowship Baptist Church in Plainville, GA, where she loved to sing.

Doris is survived by: her daughter, Tamara Tomlinson (Eddy); son, Ranal “Randy” Young (Kathy); grandchildren, Jonathan Thompson (Misty), Tanna Johnson (Jacob), Ethan Young (Yaniria), Erin Bledsoe (Brent); great-grandchildren, Zoey and Ryder Thompson, Remi Burgess, Elijah, Elena and Evie Young, and Emily Bledsoe. She is also survived by numerous Wright and Jacks cousins.
