I have known Doris since she was in high school in Smithville. She was in the same class as my brother, Bobby Stewart. Our paths crossed again in the early 1960's in Pasadena as my husband and I lived in the same general neighborhood Forrest and Doris. She truly was a sweet, sweet lady and I know she will be deeply missed by all her family. You have our deepest sympathy.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart. I am so blessed to call her my Aunt. The nights spent laughing and talking are memories sealed in my heart forever! Rest in Peace Aunt Doris.

I feel truly blessed to have gotten to know Doris. I would stop by her room every day after visiting my dad at the nursing home. She told me once that God comes to get us when He's ready. How true that is. RIP Doris

I have so many sweet memories of Doris and Forrest and the fun times we had when our families got together years ago and went on vacation. Doris was such a sweet, fun, happy lady and I am so glad I had the privilege of knowing her. She will be missed.
