My sympathy to Doris' loved ones. I worked at the Home in Maddock when Doris was a resident there. She was always a lot of fun to visit with; I enjoyed her so much. May your happy memories make this difficult time a little more bearable. Sincerely, Kristin Jones
My sympathy to your family. I cleaned for Doris a few times when I worked at the home. She was such a gracious and sweet lady. Both her and her sister Lillian were such nice ladies to visit with. I know everyone will miss her. Sonja Dahl
