Each time I visited Clinton I would visit Doodle. The last time was in June 2005 and it was such fun having lunch with her. She was such an upbeat person and such fun. She was always one of my favorite cousins.

Family,
I just found out this sad news and my heart is hurt. Ms. Doodle touched my heart way back when during my early days at Quad Area. I will always cherish her love and smile that she always had for me. God Bless You all

The Andrews family has lost its matriarch. The town of Clinton and East Feliciana Parish has lost a grand lady, a humanitarian, a great citizen and a wonderful example of how to walk the walk instead of merely talking the talk. Ms Doodle touched a lot of lives and will be missed by a lot of people. However, our loss is Heaven's gain. Ms Doodle was a true Christian lady.

Marion and I and our children [especially Melanie] were blessed to have known her. We are saddened by her passing but we know where she resides now.

Ginger, Henry, and Billy: The news of your mother was very heart felt. She will be missed by many. Mrs. Doodle was always so sweet to everyone and so ready to help anyone in need. She loved her family so much and was so proud of each one of you., plus the grands, greats and great greats. I saw her about a year ago and she told me at that time that she was so tired of going to the doctor. She is at home now with the Lord and there is no more pain for our sister in the Lord, praise God. If we can do anything for you let us know....you will be in our prayers and thoughts every day you can be sure of. God Bless you all and be with you. Love, Linda Trahan Freeman,Young and son Thomas "T-Ray" Freeman. We love you.
