Doris Morrison Obituary

WELLSVILLE - Doris E. Morrison, formerly of Riggs Street, Franklinville, passed away Sunday (May 24, 2015) at Wellsville Manor Care Center, with her extended family and caregivers at her side.

Born on Aug. 20, 1921, in Franklinville, she was the daughter of Archie and Winifred Lewis Morrison.

Doris lived in Franklinville all of her life until moving into her new home in Wellsville, where she spent four wonderful years. She was a graduate of Ten Broeck Academy in Franklinville and was employed at AVX in Franklinville and later in Olean, retiring after 30 years of service to care for her parents.

Surviving are her cousins and caregivers, Gary and Pat Balcom of Wellsville.

Per her wishes, there will be no visitation. She asked to be remembered in your thoughts and prayers. She appreciated the brief, loving care at both Jones Memorial Hospital and Wellsville Manor Care Center.

A graveside service will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday (May 28, 2015) in Mount Prospect Cemetery in Franklinville.

Memorials may be made to the Jones Memorial Hospital Foundation, P.O. Box 191, Wellsville, NY 14895. Online condolences can be sent to www.babitteastonfh.com.

Doris had the most beautiful skin. I remember enjoying homemade sponge candy at her home. Heaven is a little brighter now. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.
