Carol Orloff Memoriam
Carol left this earth on September 19, 2023, after a courageous battle with cancer. Carol was born to Mary and the late Hank Doherty of Santa Rosa. She is survived by her children, Melissa Orloff of Oregon and Ryan Orloff (Aly) of Tennessee. Carol grew up in So. San Francisco and had many good friends and classmates in South San Francisco and Petaluma. Carol was a devoted Catholic and volunteered many hours at Food Banks in the Sonoma area. She had a great passion for gardening and cooking. Her siblings include Steve Doherty (Liz), Tim Doherty (Donna), Nancy Agles (Wayne) and Joe Doherty (Debbie). She will be missed by her adored grandson, Dominic Orloff. Carol also leaves behind many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins. Her interment at Santa Rosa Memorial was private. A Celebration of Life will be at a later date. We love you and miss you and will keep you forever in our hearts.
