unity was extremely important to her. She volunteered for Meals on Wheels, Nativity bingo and parish festivals, and countless charitable organizations and events. She was a member of the Church of the Nativity in which she was very involved.
Doris was a wonderful and abundant cook. The door was always open and an extra plate set at the table. She loved to entertain and share stories, but most of all she loved time spent with her family. She enjoyed playing euchre several times a week with her friends at Eagle Pointe Place, was a huge Chicago Cubs fan and enjoyed country & western music which she would play all hours of the day. She loved attention and we loved to shower her with it.
She is survived by her husband Walter "Wally" Pitz and daughter Michelle (Jay) Johanningmeier both of Dubuque, IA; sisters-in law Geri Anthony of Dubuque, IA; Jane Anthony of Dyersville, IA; Mary Jane Anthony of Holy Cross, IA and Carol Anthony of Kieler, WI; brother-in-law Dorrance Pitz of Dubuque, IA; extended family members Kris Latham and Mark Johanningmeier both of Dubuque, IA and several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by a daughter, Marla in 1986, her parents, brothers Wilfred, Herbert, Jack (Doris), Melvin, Charles, James, and Merlin, sister-in-law Loretta Pitz and brother-in-law Ronald Pitz.
