Doris enjoyed reading old Westerns, watching old movies, and loved visiting the zoo. She retired from Hunt Regional Health Center after a long career in the health industry and was dedicated to helping care for others.

Doris will be greatly missed by her family. A private service for the family is being planned where we will share stories and say farewell for now to our beautiful mother.
