Doris A. Anderson

Beloved by all who knew her, she was a beacon of warmth and kindness, always ready with a smile, a hug and an outpouring of love for everyone she encountered. She dedicated 27 years to training employees at JCPenney, Westtown and Foothills Mall, where she was celebrated as one of the best by Corporate and her trainees.

A true warrior, she faced her battle with pancreatic cancer with incredible strength and grace, ready to step into the light when the time came. Her loyal companion, " Bella" was a constant source of comfort, and she expressed her gratitude to Vicki for Bella’s companionship until the very end. Her Special Friends include Rick Seibert, Connie, Freida, and Kathy, Jenny and Sonya, and Elin and her family, Special Thanks to Phil White and Hospice Blount Co. Her final wish was to rest with her “adopted family" including her mother resting with her.
