To all her daughters and sons , I am sadden about the loss of your mother for she was a wondeful person. She always had a smile and we shared alot of laughter at Doris Ann's house. She was one of a kind ! Now she shares a place in heaven with the Lord , and there she will have peace for eternity. She is in my prayers, and may God look upon all of you and give you the strengh to go on.

I'll always remember Doris and just smile. She was certainly one of a kind! She always was very quick witted and told you what was on her mind, whether you wanted to hear it or not, lol. It was one of the things about her that you had to love. She was always a hard worker and I had to respect her for trying to raise 7 kids on her own. We will all miss her and all the laughs and memories she gave us growing up. Bless all of you and accept our deepest sympathy for your loss.
