She married the late Walter Dohman in 1950 and they lived in Houston for 22 years before relocating to Hitchcock, TX where they enjoyed creating memories with their family, friends and being a part of the community.  Built a second home in Terlingua, TX where they explored the wildlife, land, mountains and beautiful scenery.

Pre-deceased by husband, Walter Dohman; sons, Robert Dohman and Charlie Dohman; mother, Ruby Miller; father, Jack Miller; brother, Jack Miller. 

She was a wonderful mother who was always there when we needed her. Strong enough to raise four children, and special enough to love those four children more than herself.

She was:

Emotional, yet a rock

Tired, but kept going

Worried, but full of hope

Impatient, yet patient

Overwhelmed, but never quit

Wonderful, even in chaos

Life changer, every single day

Amazing, always amazing

Mom, you will be a part of our lives every single minute of every single day. Love you so much 

The family will be  holding a graveside service Friday, September 16, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. at Galveston Memorial Park Cemetery.
