First,  my condolences to all of you.
My family and I got to know Doris through Shiloh Christian Ministries and intimately as a member of Gil and Larcenia White's Care Group or Share group as she fondly still called it. 
 She was so much fun to be around. She was stylish, humorous and unabashed about her love for Christ. She was beautiful on the inside and out. In my family, she was referred to as "new money" by Stan and Aunt Doris by Brittany(and many others).I will always remember how her smile and laughter lit up every space she occupied. 
 Through her paintings and writings, she spent much of her energy and time assuring that her family had a rich legacy of her time spent here on this earth. She extended her passions to her friends as well. May you embrace the things she loved and cared so much to leave behind for you all, and honor her through them to future generations.
May she rest eternally in the arms of a Savior that she knew about, talked about, loved and worshipped.
May you be comforted by His love. 
Here is a poem that is so appropriate for my dear sister.
In remembrance,
Sandra Williams
Sierra Vista, Arizona

HOLD HIGH THE TORCH! 
Hold high the torch!
 You did not light its' glow--
 "Twas given you by other hands, you know.
 'Tis yours to keep it burning bright,
 Yours to pass on when you no more need light;
 For there are other feet we must guide,
 And other forms go marching by our side;
 Their eyes are watching every smile and tear
 And efforts which we think are not worthwhile,
 Are sometimes just the very helps they need,
 Actions to which their souls would give most heed;
 So that in turn they'll hold it high
 And say, "I watched someone else carry it this way."
 If brighter paths should beckon you to choose,
 Would your small gain compare with all you'd lose?
 Hold high the torch!
 You did not light its' glow--
 'Twas given you by other hands, you know.
 I think it started down its' pathway bright,
 The day the Maker said: "Let there be light."
 And He once said, who hung on Calvary's tree--
 "Ye are the light of the world...Go!...Shine-for me."

I had to add these words...a poem for the poet:

Aunt Doris left a permanent impression in my heart. I remember as a child the many good times we shared at the Thanksgivings and the Christmases at your home on Boston and The Ravines in Southfield.  I also remember the good times we had at Shay Lake snowmobiling and zipping up and down the roads on our mini bikes and water skiing. Well, I didn't do any skiing but I watched a lot. That was family. This is family.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of need.

Dear Williamson Family,

I would like to express my deep and heartfelt sympathy over the loss of your beloved mother.  Mrs. Doris was a good, kindhearted, creative and amazing woman.  She will be missed by so many.  I will continue to miss her sweet smile, the twinkle in her eyes when she told funny stories and jokes, her educational and life lived wisdom and her abillity to make any individual from all walks of life feel loved, accepted and respected. I have been praying for your comfort and will continue to do so.

Again, my deepest sympathy and may God bless The Williamson Family.

Sincerely,

Janice Mack Dickerson
(Mrs. Doris' Hairstylist in Sierra Vista, 
 Arizona)
