Hello, Johnny Jr., Ricky and the rest of the family. I am sorry I am late and that I did not make it to see you guys. I have been battling cancer myself since 2015 and we are in Summerville now. Mr. Doscher was very kind and supportive to me when I was going through a hard time. But Mr., Doscher, Mr. Wise, and the rest of the family always took care of his employees!

Mr Doscher was a wonderful man. Gave me my first job at his store on Rivers Ave near 10 mile hill when I was 14 years old. Worked for him for 5 years. He was always very kind and supportive.

Thank you Mr. Doscher for giving me my first job in 1970. I didn't stay in grocery but have always been grateful for the chance you gave a young teenager. You were a good example for the work ethic. Never forgot you.

Dear Tina and Ricky & Family,
I moved to the West Ashley area of Charleston in 1970 and the Doscher Grocery Stores we our mainstay. I do not think i was ever in the store that i did not see Mr. or Mrs. Doschcer working. Your mom in the office and your dad working the floor. They gave all of you a fabulous work ethic by example. I know you miss them both!

My prayers are with John Jr. and Ricky as well as the rest of the family. Mr. Doscher was one of a kind. He was a great friend and a very smart business man. He always treated customers with kindness and respect. I always looked forward to working his store. Always had a story to tell and make your day. He can now be truly happy and enjoy eternity with his loving wife whom he loved so much. I will always remember him as the best customer i ever got the pleasure to work with in my 30 plus years in the cookie business. Job well done Mr. D.

He was a great man and although not actually a relative he was my uncle Charlie's brother in law and a close friend of my late parents Arthur and Emily Mullen Guyton. He was in many family photos and stories. He was also Pallbearer at my dad's funeral. I have fond memories of oyster roasts at his house, boat rides and trips to Folly Beach.Good bye "Uncle John".

As we look back many years we have had the pleasure of being friends of John Doscher,
we are always reminded of the Joy of being in
the same room with a man who always made one feel important and at ease with the business dealings we shared
"Mr Doscher, you are one of a kind and will be missed. May you Rest In Peace."
