Memories and Condolences
for Doris Figley
July 1, 2009
Terry and Jeff,
We want to express our deepest condolences on the loss of your mom. We are sorry we could not make the funeral, Rachel and I were away and only heard of your mom's passing today. She was such a nice lady and a wonderful neighbor. How she loved her lawn and flowers. We had to really work to keep up. I know she is feeding Zoey dog bisquits right now.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Terry & Jeff -
Our thoughts are with you & yours during this time - please accept our condolences. Your mom was a very special lady and I know she will be missed.
My mom loved Dorie so much and always spoke so highly of her. She truly loved to visit with Dorie. Like my sister Sue, I have many fond memories of Higgins Lake and the cottage.

Terry & Jeff, Please accept our condolences, we have so many wonderful memories of your mom and our times up at Higgins Lake in the summer. My mom had so much fun spending the same week at the Lake with Doris. Your mom was such a sweet & kind lady and when I visited her up at the Hospice Care she always spoke so lovingly about her boys. She loved both of you so much. Our thoughts are with you both.

Terry and Jeff, I'm so sorry to hear of your Mothers passing. We have kept her in our prayers the past few years. Try to keep in mind all the good times you had with her, those memories will help you through.

We were very close friends and I spent lots of time staying over night and at the lake with Doris and Norma. Frank was Bob's best man at their wedding. We send Jeff and Terry our condolences, also Norma and Bob's brother Dick. After moving to Florida, our visits back to Lansing and seeing longtime friends, Doris would always make the most delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. Betty Payne would keep us up to date with news of Doris. Our prayers are with you all, Frank and Mary Lynne Twichell, Sarasota, FL
