Doris was born in Plantersville on August 16, 1954, to Theodore & Katie (Ubnoski) Smith. She quickly realized there were lots of activities in the big city and moved to Houston, TX when she was 18. She began her career with Southwestern Bell for 20+ years. She and Curtis met one day at the office when he was making a delivery. Love at 1st sight did not come first, but it quickly began as they kept seeing one another. They both enjoyed dancing to country music and took the opportunity to join friends as often as possible. Most recently she was a tax preparer doing what she did best, helping the community. She loved her grandchildren the most, but she loved her siblings and friends as well. Any casino trip that she could fit in, she would!
She was preceded in death by her parents and brother, Edward “Bubba” Smith.
Doris is survived by her husband Curtis West; daughter and son-in-law Trenia & Charles Collins; step-daughter Tammy West; brothers and daughter-in-law, Thomas Smith, and Wayne & Ginger Smith; sister and brother-in-law Virginia & DR Stutts; grandchildren, Audrey Collins, Nathan Collins, Tyler West & Tanner West; and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
