    Whenever, I visited Doris over the years, there was a hot cup of tea to enjoy, while catching up on family news. Doris spoke fondly of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, She was task -orientated and gave her time, without hesitation, to many outreach programs. Doris was a faithful member of Holy Trinity Church for many years. My Deepest Sympathy to Debbie, Bill, Stephen, Sylvia and their family. RIP, Doris and may peace with your family. My Sincere Sympathy, Sister-Law, Sandra Wournell
