Doris adored being Mom, Grandma, and Gigi to her beloved children, grandchildren, and great-grandsons. We loved her more than anything and will miss her so much. She enjoyed making our favorite foods (including her chicken salad, fresh tomatoes with cottage cheese, mouse sandwiches, curly noodles, chili, fruit faces, sunshine salad, meringue pie with “syrup,” and chocolate pudding pie), sewing (especially our Halloween costumes), throwing helicopter seeds, seeing our performances and games, watching the UK Wildcats play, and spending time with her family. Providence alumni may remember her smiling face and helping hand behind the desk in the front office, where she served as secretary for many years. She was a member of Holy Family Catholic Church. Visitation will be held from 2:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on February 3, 2026 at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions (3309 Ballard Lane, New Albany, IN 47150). Her Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11:00 a.m. on February 4, 2026 at Holy Family Catholic Church (129 W. Daisy Lane, New Albany, IN 47150), with burial to follow at Holy Trinity Catholic Cemetery.
