She was educated in the public school system of Indian River in Frankford. Doris enjoyed M&M's with peanuts (but she spit the peanuts out), watermelon and cheese curls. She loved to sing, dance and loved Jesus because praising God was her greatest joy. She loved everybody; everybody was her friend, and would take anybody in if she could. She had a wonderful personality, a trait envied by many.
