She was 102 years old. Doris was raised on a working farm in Bristol with her parents, Bertus and Byrd Eubanks, and her six siblings. She was an active member of The First Baptist Church of Blountstown, having joined as a newlywed in 1945. She enjoyed serving on various committees, as well as teaching and holding leadership roles. Following her retirement from Calhoun General Hospital, she enjoyed being a part of civic groups which focused on improving the landscape and overall appearance of Blountstown. The Blountstown Garden Club, Keep Calhoun County Beautiful and Main Street brought her much joy and fulfillment. She was happiest when she was working in her yard. She enjoyed cooking and spending time with her family and was one of the few remaining matriarchs of the idyllic section of South Pear Street fondly referred to as Parker Town.

She is predeceased by her husband, Royce Traylor, her parents Bertus and Byrd Eubanks, her brothers Paul (Iona), Silas (Florence), Wilhoit (Iris). And her sisters Dessie Marr (Bill) and Betty Traylor (Cephus).

She also leaves behind the youngest of her siblings, Johnny Eubanks and his wife Beth as well as her very special nieces and nephews.
