Doris spent 87 years building her legacy of love.Doris was the fifth child born to Philomene and Damis Boisse. She was the little sister to Rodolphe, Normand, Robert, George and a big sister to Jeanne. Aunt Rose Gagne resided with the Boisse family during Doris’s youth and she affectionately thought of Aunt Rose as her big sister.
