Fort Bend Herald, May 8, 2019:
Doris May (Carroll) Boyd, a resident of Rosenberg, Texas for 60 years, passed away at home with her loving husband and children by her side. She was 89. Doris was born April 24, 1930 in Shallowater, Texas to Dovie Lee and Etta Lillian Carroll. She married Bill Boyd on January 31, 1948.
Doris was a graduate of Forreston High School and attended St. Joseph's School of Nursing in Fort Worth, Texas. Doris' love of caring for others kept her involved in various areas of nursing. Her exceptional bookkeeping skills enabled her to provide those services to numerous clients. She was also employed in several secretarial positions.
Bill and Doris lived in Waxahachie, Texas and Rosenberg, Texas. Doris faithfully cheered on the Houston Astros, enjoyed God's beauty through many family travels and adventures, and had an amazing love for people which was evidenced by her many friends. She loved her family and enjoyed cooking her delicious pecan pies for them.
