Doris was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many callings. She enjoyed being Relief Society president and serving in Young Women’s and teaching the youth in Sunday School. The youth were her favorite. She had a blast going toilet papering with them.
Doris loved people. Everywhere she went she made friends. She made people smile and laugh. She also loved and collected hearts. Doris had a heart of gold.
One of the highlights of her life was going on trips to Oregon throughout the years.
