Doris (Dori) loved to travel, enjoyed gardening and was a lover of nature and the hills of Kentucky.  Shopping was always a fun activity for her and especially at a junk or antique store.  She was the best mom, wife, sister and daughter to her loving family.  She was always the one who was the center point of contact for the entire family.  Even though we were spread out from California to Texas to Kentucky and beyond she kept all of the family in the loop of who was doing what and where.
