My husband, Bob Polson, the eldest brother of Doris, wants me to share that Doris was great sister and a good person. Always a joy to be around. He will miss their phone conversations about sports and helping her to solve those daily crossword puzzles. It is our prayer that we will see her again someday in that eternal home that is with our Heavenly Father. We also pray for the family that she has left behind. Praying that the Lord will keep them in his tender care during this time of saying good-bye.
