So many great memories of growing up with the whole Korb family. Doris was like part of my family and I am sure kept me out of harms way many times. Thinking of Russ on this sad news.

Doris was a wonderful person. I loved working with her. She was always happy to hear about my family. She loved attending the Whiteford lunches to visit with everyone. She always greeted us with a great smile even to the end. She will be missed.
