I knew Doris for a few years as a person of strong faith. We were part of a new church that was beginning. I will remember her for her kindness, love for the Lord, and as a very gracious lady. Even though I knew her for a relatively short period of my life, she made a lasting impression on me.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
What a great time we had together—we vacationed together, played games together, worshipped together, prayed together, studied our Bibles together.
Doris IS the finest of fine! A great lady, loving, tender, and full of grace and mercy. Family and friends have been blessed to know her.
