To the Ryan family. Just read of the passing of Doreen. So sorry that we were not able to attend the service. We will always remember her constant smile and how she was so dedicated to your father. (Larry's dad, Dave, shared a room with your dad) Your memories of both of them will never fade. God bless your family during this difficult time.

Dick sent me the obituary from the Redding Pilot. I was really taken back. Doreen has been on my mind. We kept in voice touch every so often but thought of each other often. You had two great parents and I have and will continue to say a little prayer for them each day as well as for those they loved. They truly loved you all.
Sorry for your loss and God bless - Mary Jarvis
god bless you all
