Phyllis Dixon wrote a sympathy message

“Heaven certainly received a precious angel! I grew up knowing Miss Doris and have many fond memories of this wonderful woman. My favorite being when she and her partner in excursions signed up for some mystery “tours” out of Columbia. They both boarded the bus wondering where their exciting travels would take them. They left Sumter and rode the bus to Columbia only to find themselves arriving at Swan Lake Gardens! These two were such a hoot!! They enjoyed the time they spent together.”
