Doris was preceded in death by her husband of 41 years, George R. Moschner. She was also preceded in death by a son, Anthony D. Moschner; and a brother, Jimmy Klinc.
Doris was a life-long parishioner of St. Sabina and Mary Catholic Church in Jenny Lind, AR where she was a member of the Altar Society. She made sure the church was always clean, the linens properly laundered and ironed, and always arrived early to open the doors and turn on the HVAC. She was a founding member of the White Bluff-Rye Hill Rural Fire department where she served as secretary for many decades and took care of many administrative duties. She also supported the firemen when they were battling fires by bringing them cold drinks and snacks, earning her the title of “Fire Mom.” She always looked forward to and participated in the annual Christmas Santa Run and accomplished a long-term goal of driving a fire truck when she was 86 years old. It was one of the many highlights of her life.
She is survived by two daughters, Angela Judkins and Mary Kochmansky; and a son, George E. Moschner and wife Luann, all of Fort Smith; six grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren. She is also survived by a sister, Ella Mae (Donald) Ritzenthaler of Huron, OH; and a brother, Edward Klinc of Fort Smith.
Viewing at the funeral home will be 8 am to 5 pm April 1, 2020. A private graveside service will be held at Calvary Cemetery under the direction of Edwards Funeral Home. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Pallbearers will be members of the White Bluff-Rye Hill Rural Fire Department: Dale Seiter, Ronnie Hisaw, Mark Condren, Jim Almond, Chuck Allen and Ronnie Mickle.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to St. Sabina and Mary Catholic Church, 1301 Frank St., Barling, AR 72923 or White Bluff-Rye Hill Rural Fire Department, 5325 Spring Mountain Road, Fort Smith, AR 72916.
