My thoughts & prayers go out to the family of Doris. Doris & I worked together over 20 years ago at Scott Oil 3rd shift. She always made the time go by so fast & she always had a smile on her face. Although its been years since our paths have crossed, I'm sure she is up there making everyone laugh.

To the Driscoll family, I was so sad to hear of your mom's passing. I enjoyed coming to her house to trim and style her hair( so she could put one of her beautiful do's on top of her head) She was one of a kind! We loved your mom!! She will definitely be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Love, Patti & Angel
