We are the grandchildren of Doris’s dear friends and neighbors, Evelyn and Theodore Bartell. Doris was an elegant and vibrant figure in our childhood. She moved through the room with the grace and confidence of a woman many years her junior, but she also had the warmth and kindness of a grandmother. She always asked about our studies and hobbies and treated us with genuine interest. We’ll remember fondly playing in her backyard, swimming in the pool that she and our grandparents shared, and then coming in for tea and conversation. Rest in peace, Doris.
