Doris and Paul moved from the East Coast to Fremont in 1962, living on Conde Court next to many wonderful neighborhood friends. She was active in Irvington Presbyterian Church, Fremont Christian Women's Club and Red Hat Society. After she retired from the DMV she volunteered at Kaiser Hospital and the Cancer Society. Her Christian faith was an example for all her family. She loved to travel, laugh and be with her grandkids. Doris made many lifelong friendships who she loved very much. She will be missed for her kind nature and bright personality. Her family knows she will always be part of their lives.

The family wishes to thank her wonderful caretakers for their loving and devoted care, and all of her wonderful friends for loving her.

Dear Sweet Doris, You have been such a wonderful friend to me, and especially to my Mom, Helen Paulson, and our family. My Mom considered you one of her very best friends. You were such a devoted friend, always there for us, and always smiling and laughing. We will miss you dearly. We are so thankful you are with the Lord now, and you're probably having some good fun with my Mom. We love you so much. Thank you for being in our lives, and thank you for being you. You were wonderful and we're sure going to miss you with all our hearts. Love, Gayle Paulson Neumann and family.
