Doris Foster's Obituary
Doris Trammell Foster, 89, passed away Sunday, June 12, 2016. She was born in Sardis MS, on September 5, 1926, where she attended Sardis High School and was a member of Hebron Baptist Church. Doris was the loving and devoted wife for 68 years of Calvin L. Foster (deceased). She married her high school sweetheart, moved to Memphis and began to raise her family. The couple loved to travel, venturing across the states and Europe. Doris also loved to sing and was a long time member of the choir at Beverly Hills Baptist Church. She leaves one daughter, Rebecca Foster Gosnell (Bill), and two sons, Calvin Foster Jr. (Nancy) and David Foster (Pat) all of Memphis TN. She also leaves six grandchildren and ten great grandchildren. Doris was a benevolent, loving mother and graceful homemaker. She was very proud of her family and loved holidays, family celebrations and cookout get-togethers; any chance to spend time with her family was true joy for her. Doris was also known for her good-natured personality, her generous helpful way and feisty sense of humor. All that knew and loved her will miss her tremendously. Everyday we’ll celebrate her in some way, if just by the virtue of how she shaped our lives. We shine because of her light, goodnight dear Mother. The family will receive friends on Tuesday, June 14 from 1:30-2:30PM with the funeral service to follow immediately at 2:30PM. All services will be held at Memorial Park
