Doris L. Allen

Regna Allen and died on January 9, 2014. She was a graduate of Lewis and Clark

High School. She began working at age 14 as a page in the Spokane Library and went on

to have a career spanning over 40 years in the City of Spokane library system. When

World War II interrupted her college plans, she became an air raid warden in the

basement of the old Heath library branch. After a brief marriage in 1941, she remained

single for the rest of her life.

Upon retiring she took many great trips including ones to Alaska, Canada and the East

Coast. She loved to cook and feed people and as a longtime member of Bethany

Presbyterian Church the Welcome Neighbors dinners were a pet project of hers. She

also enjoyed summering at Deer Lake where she had a place for many years. While she

was an avid animal lover, she was especially fond of dogs.

Special thanks to Emilie Court Assisted Living, Family Home Care and Hospice of

Spokane for their excellent care.

Doris will be remembered fondly by her family and her many friends. A memorial

service will be held at Bethany Presbyterian Church, 2607 S. Ray, Spokane, WA 99223

on Saturday, January 18, 2014 at 11:00 a.m.

Arrangements under the direction of Hazen & Jaeger Funeral Home, Spokane, WA.
