Doris spent the last four years working at Flowers in the Park in Sherwood Park where she enjoyed arranging flowers for different occasions. Doris was a very caring and creative individual. She enjoyed working with seniors and volunteered at a personal care home in Sherwood Park as well as with (S.A.G.E.) Seniors Association of Greater Edmonton. Her creative talents shone in many different ways such as knitting, embroidery, clay fired pottery, sewing, furniture restoration, creating willow furniture, scrapbooking and most recently photography. Doris loved to travel and she and her husband travelled across Canada and most of the United States, the Caribbean, Cuba, South East Asia and Mexico. Her fondest memories were the annual trips in the orange VW van to Lucerne campground on Yellowhead Lake to meet with many friends and family members throughout the years. She will be greatly missed by all of her friends and family.
