Doris Flint, 93, of Viborg, SD has gone home, leaving behind a circle of those who loved her.
The chapters of her life were many; these are some of them.
Doris's story began in 1932, and unfolded across the years that followed.
Doris held deeply to the Baptist faith — and was, by all accounts, loved by those who knew her best.
Belief, when lived, becomes a kind of inheritance.
