Jane 3rd October 2021

I became friends with Doris in 1979. We played classical guitar duets together. We made music and it made Doris very happy. For that I am very pleased. Doris had many, many other interests but I believe music was her first love, particularly classical guitar (on her much loved Ramirez). She told me three years ago that if ever her house was on fire, she would rescue her Ramirez guitar first above everything else. Bach made her cry sometimes; probably the closest she came to feeling the presence of God - through music's ability to attain the sublime. So cruelly taken away from her brother and her many friends. But I comfort myself in the knowledge that she now plays her music with the angels and, unlike me, they never let her down with fumbled notes. A beautiful personality and a unique character. I am the better for having been able to call her 'friend.' Miss you Doris, Love, Jane
