Doris' career as a homemaker allowed her time to be involved in numerous charitable and social organizations through the years.  Her sense of style and design was reflected in all aspects of her life.  She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother always making family and friends feel welcome in her home.  A bowl of Hershey Kisses was kept nearby and a "kiss" offered to anyone who stopped to visit.  She will be deeply missed by everyone who knew her.
