Doris Arlene Hoover
Doris Arlene Hoover, 87, of Lancaster, entered into the presence of our Lord on October 28, 2016.
She was the wife of the late J. R. Hoover who died in 1984. Born in Drumore Twp., she was the daughter of the late Willard and Dorothy McCauley.
Doris began working fresh out of high school at Hamilton Watch and retired from Bulova Technologies in 1993. She was a member of Faith Bible Fellowship Church in Lancaster.
She lived a wonderful life, full of family and friends. She delighted in the simple pleasures, such as family gatherings and holiday celebrations. Among her favorite things were camping with family, and having a long, leisurely breakfast with relatives and her friends, Mary Hogg and Mary Winters. She enjoyed taking bus trips, taking a drive down a long country road or just having a cup of coffee with her brother. Over the years she had enjoyed the company of her pets. She will be sadly missed by her family.
