It is difficult to offer words that can express a person's feelings when trying to console those who have lost so much. I will always remember the smiles that Doris shared during my visit with she and Alan. I know how much she is loved by all who knew her, and my heart goes out to her children and grandchildren. To my brother Alan, I will forever cherish the short time we got to share. I will pray for God to make known to you everyday, that he has prepared a place for your lovely Doris. She will stand by you when you are called to The Lord. I'm so sorry she had to leave you, but I rejoice in her salvation and eternal life

So sorry for your loss.
My deepest condolences dear friend, you and Doris have been such good friends for so many years. As I reminisce of the times our families spent together at Ft. Campbell, with backyard barbecues, parties and just hanging out together. As I look through some of my old pictures from those times all I can do is smile. You guys were a big part of our lives and we will miss our sweet Doris, we love you brother
Shari, I am so very sorry for the loss of your mother. I remember her as such a sweet and kind lady. As your 5th grade teacher I knew Mrs. Weiler as a loving and supportive mother. I still enjoy the ceramic Santa that she made me. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Al, Shari, and Chad, Please accept our deepest and most heartfelt condolences. Doris was the ideal mom, Army wife, neighbor, and friend. She set the bar high and did everything from and with love. We have had the extreme privilege to call her our friend. She is so greatly missed. We pray that you feel all the love and strength sent your way and mostly feel the comfort that our Lord is wrapping you up in. Your lifetime of memories is a great testament to the love shared !
