Doris Gertrude Reed, 92 of Dunbar, died at Ohio Valley Health Care in Parkersburg on December 27, 2018.

She was born on November 8, 1926 on Lightner Avenue in Dunbar, and was the daughter of the late Cecil Homer and Mary Cecil Glass Reed.

Doris graduated from Dunbar High School in 1946 and worked at several businesses in the greater Charleston area, retiring from Ames Department Store. She was a longtime member of First Baptist Church of Dunbar and participated in the choir, she taught youth Sunday school classes and enjoyed travel trips with many of her friends from church.
