We lost a beautiful soul this weekend. My deepest condolences to all of Doreen’s family and friends. If I know Doreen, she is helping out above in any way that she can. Doreen never seemed to want to be the center of attention, but rather gave her all to make you feel you were the center of her attention. She will be deeply missed.

Words cannot bring you the comfort or solace that you deserve, but I hope you find it in each other and with your family. The pain you feel is a testament to the love and memories you shared. My family and I are thinking of you all in this time of sadness.
Tom, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Doreen was such a special person. She always went out of her way to live life to the fullest. She was a kind and caring person and so intelligent. Brady family I am so sorry for your loss.
May God comfort you in your sorrow and loss.
Doreen was one of many amazing ladies that lead me when I was an Emporia State University student employee in the Office of Human Resources. Doreen’s warm smile made others feel comfortable; she was always so supportive with a great sense of humor, having a great knack for making others smile and laugh. I loved my time at ESU, and she was one of the reasons why.
Prayers and Hugs,

Life sure brings a lot of changes over time. I pray for God’s Peace and the comfort of family and friends along with good memories to sustain you. I am comforted knowing she is with our Lord and will be there to greet us all one day.
