Doris’s family remembers, with warm hearts, the Sunday family dinners of roast beef and mashed potatoes and the holiday dinners around “Nana’s” table.  She made the best homemade food and was meticulous about her raisin cake, raisin cookies, peanut butter eggs, and sweet iced tea.  Doris had a sweet tooth and would often purchase a bag of candy for her son, Dan, and then give him one piece.  Doris’s entire life was devoted to her family and she was fiercely proud of all of their accomplishments.  She lived through her grandchildren and was especially thrilled to have her great grandson, Nash.  Doris was loved deeply and will be missed.
