Years ago I frequently had lunch with Doris and Hy at Robertson's on Broad St. They were wonderful people and I was fortunate to have known them.

I knew Doris from Memminger High School and saw her at our last reunion. She was still a lovely person. My heartfelt sympathy to her family

Ms Doris and I became great friends while I was working at a local brokerage firm. She was warm and friendly and we spoke many times about how much she missed her husband. I enjoyed the time I spent with her even only knowing her a few years. She was a beautiful, compassionate woman. I am sure she will be missed greatly. My sympathies to her family.
