Doris was my first and most favorite Sunday School teacher at Immanuel Lutheran. As I matured, she became one of my weekly church confidants and close friend. She was the first one to arrive at my wedding reception and one of the last to leave and I loved that about her. Doris was one of the most polished, intellectual, and accomplished women I knew - and I was lucky enough to know quite a few! I will miss her wise smile and sparkling eyes, but I am so very much a better human for having known her. My condolences to the family and friend group.
