Doris Dull Obituary
November 14, 1930 - October 24, 2024
Doris Lee Randolph Dull, of Buena Vista, passed peacefully on October 24th, at home with her family, just as she had wished.
She was born in 1930 to Lula Mae Burton Randolph and Russell Phillip Randolph, growing up with her brother, Walter and sister, Bernice in Dayton, VA. After she graduated from Dayton High School in 1948, she entered business school. In 1950, she married Richard Houston Dull of Steeles Tavern.
The two started their family in Lexington and in 1955 moved to Buena Vista. Not long after that, she got a job at Peoples Bank in Buena Vista. She continued to work there in progressively responsible positions in a career ending with Central Fidelity Bank. She retired in 1985, and remained in Buena Vista after Richard died in 2008.
Bright, witty and charming, she enjoyed traveling and was an avid John Grisham reader. She loved to bowl and was on a league team up until her early eighties. She played a wicked game of cards, and enjoyed the time she was able to spend along the Maury River at the family cabin. She inspired laughter in and gratitude from everyone who had the privilege of being in her company.
She is survived by her daughters, Linda Lind (Ray), Sharon Dull (Pat Morrison), Virginia Coffey (Troy); her son, W.R. (James Faubion); and her four grandchildren, Carson Lind and Nicholas, Calvin and Jordan Coffey.
Visitation will take place Friday, November 1, 2024, from 6 to 8 p.m., at Bolling Grose & Lotts Funeral Home, 2160 E. Midland Trail in Buena Vista. The gravesite funeral takes place Saturday, November 2, 2024, at 2 p.m., at Mt. Carmel Presbyterian Church, 6410 Lee Jackson Highway, Steeles Tavern.
The family is grateful for the sensitive care at-home LPN Bonnie Branham, and the Connections Plus Healthcare & Hospice team provided her in her last months. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be sent to Connections Plus Healthcare & Hospice, 315 Myers Street, Lexington, VA 24450, or at https://www.connectionsplus.care/donation-page.html.

Mrs. Dull was such a lovely lady. I always enjoyed seeing her when she worked at the bank. Always so pleasant and professional. Her smile will be remembered.
