Baby Doris
Probably in 1928, somewhere in South Chicago.
A few years later.
Young Doris
Doris was beautiful, and bold for her time. Out on her own at 19.
And a mother – 3 boys! (Not at 19.)
Doris with Baby Carl
There must be more mother and son pictures that happened before this shot with Carl – he is number 3. But this is undoubtedly the cutest.
1970 with Carl and Steve
And as you can see, hiking in the mountains played a big part in Bob & Doris’ life together. They liked the mountains so much they retired to Colorado.
1971 Doris with Bob & Carl
1981 Doris and Bruce
Early 1970s – all 3 Boys and 1 girlfriend
Bob, Doris, Carl & Ashlan in 2010
Ashlan and Doris
Doris was a teacher, math. Carl credits Doris with his love of numbers. Even after Doris retired she continued tutoring high school students. She was so committed to being helpful that she took the class to learn how to use the new-fangled graphing calculators.
And the crafts. This Christmas tree brought to you by Doris Harms.
Pictures through the years have graced our trees. Not to mention the stockings.
Carl and Rey got to spend some time with Bob & Doris last summer. (I have always thought Carl favored Doris, while Rey favors Bob.)
July 2014 Doris with Carl, Rey & Bob
Doris – you will be missed.
