Doris Murle Dosh

Doris Murle Dosh, 94, passed away on November 9, 2026. Born on July 5, 1932, Doris lived a life marked by steadfast devotion, quiet strength, and a gentle, generous spirit. A beloved and cherished presence to many, she will be remembered with deep respect and lasting affection.

Doris’s early years were shaped by the values of hard work and honesty. She enjoyed working on the family farm, and her sense of responsibility showed early—reflected in her perfect attendance at school. It was also in those formative days that she met the love of her life, Bobby, early in high school, beginning a bond rooted in loyalty and enduring care.

On June 11, 1950, Doris married Bobby Dosh Sr. Throughout their life together, Doris remained faithful and deeply devoted—first to her husband, and always to her family. She was the proud mother of one son, Bobby Dosh, and one daughter, Debra Smith [Michael]. Her family grew to include 6 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren, and 3 great-great-grandsons, and she found true purpose and joy in spending time with them, visiting often and offering steady, kind-hearted care.

Doris retired from Spring City Knitting Co., closing a working chapter defined by diligence and reliability—qualities that remained evident in every part of her life. Whether in routine responsibilities or in the ways she showed up for others, she carried herself with a gentle consistency that made people feel safe, valued, and loved.

In her personal time, Doris embraced simple pleasures and wide horizons. She enjoyed gardening, camping, fishing, and water-skiing, and she took comfort in sitting down to watch her stories on TV. A traveler at heart, she was especially proud to have visited all 50 states in the USA—an accomplishment that reflected both her steady determination and her appreciation for life’s experiences.

Doris made her home in Sun City, Arizona. Her legacy is one of generosity, devotion, and a love that stayed constant through the years—offered quietly, faithfully, and without condition.

Please send any flowers to Chapel of the Chimes Mortuary (7924 N 59th Ave) for a catered reception.
