There a I few people in one’s lifetime, that you have known through your whole lifeti from when you were a small child, through teenage years, college and through your whole adulthood watching you become a parent and I later years watching and working with you . Doris always treated me with kindness,respect and support. As a neighbor across from my childhood home there were many times that she gave me safe haven. When working at our synagogue I got to have an adult to adult relationship which was endearing and supportful.
May her memory bring heartfelt to her children and grandchildren.

Chez and Masliansky Family's,
I am so sorry to hear about Doris Chez zl. A wonderful mother ,grandmother and great grandmother. I grew up with Micheal Chez zl. I remember visiting the Chez family as a small girl. Doris zl was so kind to me and always made me feel at home. Micheal and I attended Arie Crown together. Eugene Chez zl grew up with my dear mother Rozzie Aranoff zl. .Micheal and I renewed our friendship when he returned from Isreal. He was such a special man and very caring. He was so proud of his beautiful children. He was proud of his incredible parents zl and his siblings.
May Hashem heal all of your families among all the other
Mourners of Jerusalem. I thought about your family throughout the years.
