Doris Helen (Brown) Aldredge

Funeral services for Doris Helen (Brown) Aldredge, 80, of Lufkin will be held Monday, July 22, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. in the Carroway Funeral Home Chapel with Brother Kent Childers officiating. Interment will follow in Newman Cemetery.

Mrs. Aldredge was born May 10, 1944 in Lufkin, Texas to the late Johnnie Ruth (Henry) and Jack Foster Brown, and died Wednesday, July 17, 2024 in a local nursing home.

Mrs. Aldredge loved to sew and quilt for many years until her husband, Delbert, passed away. She was an incredible cook and would cook full spreads for the holidays and get-togethers. She would thrive during the holiday season and cook and give gifts to all she could. Mrs. Aldredge had a green thumb. She had an uncanny ability to make plants thrive. Her home has flowers and fruit trees that she enjoyed taking care of. Ultimately, she was an incredible homemaker who relished in the company of her family and friends.

She loved her pets as companions, especially Bella and Molly. She was heartbroken at the loss of her dachshund, Sophie, over a year ago and is happy to reunite with her family as much as her pets.

Her love of the Lord provided her comfort until He finally called her Home. Her trust in Him was truly absolute.

Survivors include her sons and daughter-in-law, Rick and Kelly Aldredge of Fort Worth, and Michael Aldredge of Lufkin; grandsons, Zach Aldredge of Fort Worth, Nicholas Aldredge and wife Katherine, and Drew Aldredge, all of Lufkin; great-grandsons, Elijah Aldredge and Ian Aldredge, both of Lufkin; sister, Judy Brown of Lufkin; nephews, Craig Poskey and David Shepherd, both of Lufkin; and numerous other nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Delbert Aldredge; grandson, Alex Aldredge; sister and brother-in-law, Carolyn and David Shepherd; and niece, Pamela Wise.

Pallbearers will be Craig Poskey, Nicholas Aldredge, Drew Aldredge, Zachary Aldredge, Rick Aldredge, and Michael Aldredge.

The family will welcome friends and loved ones from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. Monday morning prior to the services.
