Throughout her life, Doris had a profound love for storytelling. Her favorite books were those with a compelling narrative, regardless of the genre. She was an ardent fan of Frank Sinatra and The Irish Riverdancers, her taste in music reflecting her vibrant spirit. Her favorite TV Shows included the likes of Judge Judy, Dateline, 20/20, America's Got Talent (AGT), and The Voice among many others.
Always active in her youth, Doris enjoyed reading, watching movies and TV shows, and spending quality time with friends and family over meals at her favorite restaurants.
