Doris Anderson Shaw, 91

| April 26, 2024 1:00 AM

Nov. 24, 1931 — Aug. 19, 2023. A resident of Vacaville, Calif.

Doris Shaw passed away Aug. 19, 2023, at the age of 91, due to complications from dementia. She had been a resident of Castro Valley for over 50 years but was moved in 2021 to a care facility in Vacaville, close to her daughter, when her needs changed.

Doris was preceded in death by her husband of 65 years, William, who passed away in 2015. Her son, David, passed away unexpectedly in 2022 and is survived by his three children, daughter-in-law and three grandchildren.

Doris is survived by her oldest son, Robert, his wife, and their blended family of children and grandchildren. She also leaves behind her only daughter, Teresa (aka Sam) and her daughter.

There are many other cherished relatives and friends who were touched by her life, and they will dearly miss Doris and her quiet grace and love of God, family, and tradition.

A graveside service will be Monday, May 6, 2024, at 11 a.m. at Greenwood Cemetery in Kellogg (208-786-9131). Doris will be interred with her husband in the Industrial Union Section, Row 7, at Plot 319. No seating is available, so bring your own folding chair if needed. We encourage everyone to wear something blue as that was her favorite color.
