Doris and Jim were wheat farmers, working side by side to build a life and a legacy for their family. In addition to farming, Doris held various jobs, from working at the grain company to refurbishing furniture. However, her most cherished roles were those of wife, mother, and grandmother.
Doris leaves behind her loving husband, James W. Potts; three daughters, Debbie, Sandie, and Lori; seven grandchildren; and eleven great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, Emma and Ed Jones, and her six siblings.
Doris enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, who were her pride and joy. She also loved visiting the casino with her husband, Jim. Her warm smile, loving spirit, and dedication to her family will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
