I worked with Doris for twenty years and kept in touch after retirement. Was shocked to hear of her death. My sympathy to the family and friends who will miss her warm personality and positive out looked to life. I will miss her. May God comfort you at this time and for years to come.

Christina and Alexia, I am so saddened to hear of the death of your mother. I knew her for many years as she lived across the street from my mother, Eloyse Lyons. I always enjoyed talking to her, usually at neighborhood functions. She was a lovely, cultured woman who was always positive. There is a hole in the heart of South Edgewood Avenue.

Please accept my deepest condolences on your loss. John and I were colleagues at AT&T/Lucent and members of an investment club we started together.
