Ms. Doris lived next door to my Momma on Gardner Drive. She was a very sweet lady. Julie and Dennis Spiller.
Melissa I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. Ms. Doris was so precious to me and came into my life when I needed her the most. She guided me and helped me so much to get my life back on the right track. I loved working with her at Brookshire’s. She always had a smile on her face and a kind thought or word to share. Your mom was so very kind, and I see it in your smile and kind words every time I see you out. Please know that I love you and I am thinking about you. Ginger Bell
