Dorris was a kind, compassionate, and loving person. These strong characteristics lead her to a career as an oncology health care provider. When she wasn’t working, Dorris treasured time spent with her family. She led a simple life dedicated to her loved ones and her Catholic faith.

She is survived by her daughter, Deborah Clarke (Ed); son, Sean Kelly; grandchildren; Tara Clarke and Trent, Tiernan, Shane, and Chole Kelly; and her great-granddaughter, Sophia Charlton. Dorris will also be dearly missed by her lifelong friend, Madeline Akers; her beloved dog, Boone; as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
