DORIS M. SAYLES

The loss you feel today is profound, yet the story of his life does not end here. It continues in the countless lives he touched, in the values he demonstrated, and in the love he gave so freely. His journey was marked by compassion, resilience, and quiet strength. He faced life's challenges with grace and met its joys with a grateful heart.

His legacy is not measured only by accomplishments, but by moments — the comforting words he offered, the laughter he shared, the encouragement he gave when it was needed most. He had a remarkable way of making people feel seen, heard, and valued. Those who knew him will remember him not only for what he did, but for who he was — genuine, caring, and full of heart.

Though we grieve his absence, we honor him by carrying forward the kindness he showed, the love he modeled, and the integrity he lived by. His memory will continue to inspire strength in times of difficulty and gratitude in moments of joy. He will always be remembered with deep love and respect.
