She was a great lady. Mother of 8 children. single handed establishment of Webster University's business and management program. Single handily recruited hundreds of women to her program. She recruited me to her faculty in her 2nd year where I served for 34 years. She left her mark on the world.

I will always remember Doris with the utmost respect for her life achievements. I will always remember Doris with a smile for her spunk and her friendship. I met Doris through the West County Family YMCA Arthritis pool exercise classes and will always admire her determination.

On behalf of College Club of St. Louis, please accept our condolences. Doris joined in 2000 and was a loyal supporter of our scholarship program for high school women. She rarely missed an activity. I met Doris in 2006, when I joined College Club. She was fun to sit with. I found her to be helpful, kind, and clever. Her many friends in College Club will miss seeing her each week.

My dearest Doris,
You were first my mentor and then my friend. I enjoyed and respected watching you raise your family, supporting your grown children and admired all that you did with and for all of your grandchildren.

May GOD hold your hand and together, with him, you will see all of the wonderful good that you did on this earth.

My Love,
Jeri "Pilarski" Schultz
