Dear aunt, cousin, and friend of many.
Doris was an outgoing lady who was kind-hearted and extremely generous. Any charitable organization envelope mailed to her home was always filled and returned. Doris and Richard had a great life together and loved to travel across the country in their RV. Doris especially loved anywhere with a beach and a place to swim. She loved her family and her dogs and was always singing a happy tune as she walked around her home. Feeding the birds was a very important activity for her. Doris spent a lot of quality time with her nieces and nephews and treated them as her own children. She was a member of St. Robert Bellarmine Church and spent many years in a ladies bowling league. Her cheerful smile and kindness to everyone will be missed.
