Dorris was a kind, loving and giving person. She was full of life and laughter. 
She had many crosses to bear in her life, but always smiled, held her head high 
and accepted them with peace and grace. 
She loved being with family and friends. She was a graduate of LSU, and an avid 
LSU sports fan. 

She was a devout Catholic and parishioner of St. Joseph Co-Cathedral. She was a 
retired educator of 42 years. 
In later years, she suffered with dementia, but still managed to smile. She was 
loved by her family and friends and will be deeply missed. 

The family is grateful to the staff of Audubon Health and Rehab for the time, 
concern and excellent care given to her. 
Sincere thanks goes to St. Catherine's Hospice. 

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Alzheimer's 
Foundation. 

Landry's Funeral Home in Thibodaux is in charge of arrangements.
