"We were saddened to learn of the death of Doris, she was a wonderful person and very dear to all of us. She was a super babysitter for our children. They were always excited to see Mee Maw! When Caitlin was born she was our first sitter and I remember saying to Peggy that Caitlin was in better hands with Mee Maw than she was with us! She really taught us how to take care of a newborn. I am sure she went straight to heaven. Please know you all are in our thoughts and prayers. John, Peggy, Caitlin, Laura, John Mack and Maren"
