Alive[edit]

Any information Doris is still alive as i've yet find anything on her for years. --ThatBaileyLad (talk) 15:49, 13 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

According to the first source in the article, she was living in California as of 2008. I've searched Ancestry, and can't see anything to suggest she's died since. A hiccup online (confusing her with a woman of a very similar name) previously led some to believe that she had died in 1997. Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 16:26, 13 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jkaharper very interesting it's very possible she's alive at 100 since we can't seem to find anything on her to suggest she's died since 2008 hopefully something will turn up on her soon to suggest she's still alive. --ThatBaileyLad (talk) 16:38, 13 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi so according to this Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/thelemonleaf/ Doris celebrated her 100th birthday but i know Facebook isn't really reliable but you should be able to find it if you scroll down the page. --ThatBaileyLad (talk) 01:35, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Great find! I see no harm in using it. It clearly identifies her and has a photo attached to the post. We’ve used Facebook as a source in exceptional cases before. Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 02:22, 15 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
