I’m heartbroken to find this. I worked with a crew from our church to help her with the clean up and rebuild on her home after the flood of 2010. I painted her upper cabinets to match the lower ones and we had wonderful conversations during that process. We made many trips to Lowe’s to pick out things she needed. We loved talking about Opryland and the Opry. She had so many wonderful stories. She spoke of her son and daughter-in-law that lived in Lebanon. I tried to reach them several times over the past few years. Doris was a sweet blessing in my life. My condolences to the family.

My wife and I met Doris while visiting the Opry many years ago. We looked forward to seeing and talking to her each time we visited. After she retired, we would talk on the phone. Sorry to hear that she has passed. Doris was a fun loving, caring person. We will miss her. Our condolences to her family and friends.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Doris while working with her at the Opry. She was one of a kind -smart, full of grace, beauty, charm, humor and wit and was a gifted storyteller. I will cherish the memories of working with her and getting to know her.

I met and fell in love with Mrs Cockrill at Grace Healthcare. I lost my mom there just before Doris came. We became good friends quickly as she was so kind and had so many beautiful stories. Doris was a delight to me and others. Please accept my condolences. Barbara Sullivan
