Doris Lynette Breeze, 95, died Oct. 1, 2014, in Hutchinson. She was born July 12, 1919, in Iuka, Kansas, to Edgar and Verma (Beach) Keller.

She graduated from Antrim High School. Doris married Eddie Southards, of Byers, in 1937. They later divorced. She then married Harold E. Breeze on April 14, 1949, in Preston. He died June 9, 1992. Doris was a beautician, with a shop in her home in South Hutchinson until retiring at age 85. A member of South Hutchinson Methodist Church, she served in many capacities and was a member of Eastern Star. Doris loved to be in the kitchen cooking, baking or swapping recipes. She liked picking sand hill plums and making jelly to share with friends.

Doris was always there if you needed help or just someone to visit with.
