A saint, a servant and a warrior

Humble and kind
Gentle with difficult folk
Judicious with contrary folk

A fellow you could follow
A friend who was true blue
Jesus was his mentor
Heaven now his home

DORIS KELLEY

Wife of Charles, devoted, faithful and true
Excelled as mother, loved her children
Raised them to be Godly women and man
Jesus was her life; He was her foundation and Lord

She lived what she taught
People count
Kindness is a virtue
Life is important

Passionately committed to her church
She loved her pastors and her friends
Praying for young and old; new friends and longtime friends
Doris always had Jesus on her mind

She did His work
Compassionate, caring, tender and understanding
Tirelessly she promoted the cause of Christ
Never forgetting the need to keep her family close

Courageous, sensitive, bold
New opportunities were never an obstacle
Coming to New Orleans almost an invalid
She made new friends in a city where she literally knew no one

Her life is a living example of how Christ conquerors society
She lived a great life
Christ shone thru all that she did
Now she is with Jesus and friends
