Doris, as I sit here writing notes to family members, memories of our times together come flooding back. We loved you and will miss you. We still can't believe your are gone .You made me a sister-in-law almost 49 tears ago. I may not belong to the Busy Bees, but we did have a sisterhood " Wives of the Snyder men". Forever in our hearts.
