Doris Christina Lambert

Doris was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 46 years, Daniel L. Lambert, Sr.; her parents, Anthony Joseph Christina and Alma Wilhelm Christina; her two sisters, Shirley Christina Hudson and Marian Christina Doucet; and her grandson, Jeffrey Michael Lambert.

She is survived by her son, Daniel L. Lambert, Jr. (Karen); her daughter, Dawn Lambert Goodbee (Gregory); her granddaughter, Christina Lambert Mendel (Audy); and her three great grandchildren, Gia Christina, Samantha Ann, and Rocco Joseph Mendel. She is also survived by her sister, Lois Christina Kelly, numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, great-great nieces, and great-great nephews.

Doris was born and raised in New Orleans, and graduated from St. Stephen’s High School, class of 1949. She was a devoted parishioner of St. Benilde Parish since its establishment in 1964.

Doris enjoyed gambling at the casinos, crossword puzzles, and watching game shows; but most of all, she enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren.

The family would like to extend their deepest gratitude to Jennifer Sterling, NP at JenCare and Gloria Fenner for the loving, compassionate, and devoted care shown to our mom.
