Knowing Doris, you would certainly recognize her infectious smile, her kind and adventurous spirit and her genuine love of family and friends. She was a talented artist, wood worker and crafter who used her talents to make furniture and crafting supplies for others in her and her late husband’s wood working shop. Whether selling wares at a flea market, fishing, or, at times, searching for lost treasure with her metal detector, she enjoyed most just being outdoors and meeting people. An avid gardener, she always had beautiful plants and flowers to enjoy in and around her home. She was a great listener who always showed interest in hearing the experiences of the people she met and sharing her own stories with them. Her greatest joy was found in being around her family and friends, especially her children and grandchildren.
