Doris Andrews


Mrs. Doris Andrews, age 66, of Charlotte passed away Sunday, November 8, 2020 at Eaton County Health and Rehabilitation Services in Charlotte, Michigan.
Doris was born in Charlotte on November 9, 1953, the daughter of the late Isaac and Helen Bursley.
She was raised in the Charlotte area, attended local schools and graduated from Charlotte High School in 1971.
Doris was the widow of Mr. Mark  Andrews. The couple were married in 1983, and made their home together in the Nashville area while they raised their family together. After the loss of her husband in 1997, Doris relocated to the Charlotte area, to be closer to her sister Barbara.
Doris spent the majority of her working career as a custodian, who specialized in the care of government buildings in the Lansing area. Doris retired in 2017 after 21 years of faithful service.
Doris had a beautiful gift of “giving.”  No matter what stage of life Doris was in, she enjoyed giving not only of herself but tangible gifts as well. In her later years she enjoyed making crafts and art, which she would give to fellow residents to brighten their rooms and their day. She also enjoyed listening to “classic” country music and watching old westerns on television.
Doris is survived by her sons, Christopher (Tiffany) Andrews and Patrick Andrews; her two sisters, Barbara Bursley and Dorothy Palmer; one brother, Ike (Terrie) Bursley; and two grandchildren, Laura and Bryan Andrews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Mark, and her sister, Mary Gamble.
Graveside services were held at the Wilcox Cemetery in Nashville, Michigan on Friday, November 13, 2020 with Pastor Karen Kinney officiating.
Memorial contributions can be made to the Eaton County Rehabilitation Center – Activities Department.
The family is in the care of The Daniels Funeral Home in Nashville, Michigan.
