Doris is survived by her sister Edna Adams and several nieces, although she mourns the loss of her late nephew, Donald Adams. A former Sales Associate at JL Hudson, Doris was appreciated for her warmth and commitment to her work.

In addition to these local residents, the community was saddened by the news of James Raymond Skiver, age 81, from Venice, Florida, who lost his life following a traffic crash on September 4, 2025. Skiver was a passenger in a Mitsubishi Outlander driven by his 73-year-old wife when the vehicle collided with an Acura RDX at the intersection of M-5 and 14 Mile Road. Witnesses reported that the Acura had a green light at the time of the accident. All occupants of the vehicles were wearing seatbelts, and authorities confirm that alcohol was not a factor in the crash. Both Skiver and the other occupants were transported to an area hospital; however, Skiver’s condition deteriorated during his hospitalization. The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate the incident.
