I did not know Doris but know her son Dave; a kind and respectful man. Dave took the time to help care for her in her final days. Knowing Dave I can imagine what a great woman she was. I celebrate her life and her legacy of teaching others. There is no greater reward than to know that you have helped others to succeed. Take time to enjoy your family and friends while you can.and take the time to care for others even though it may be inconvenient . Love one another…
