Doris J. Waite, 95, of Tyrone, passed away Sunday. She was born in Tyrone, a daughter of the late Edward R. and Edith K. (Wertz) Neil.

Surviving are her daughter, Dawn Ann Covino, and husband, Jeff, of Altoona; two grandsons, Daniel (Hannah) and Michael (Shannon); and three great-grandsons.

Doris enjoyed sewing, baking, ceramics and reading, but what she loved most of all was spending time with her family, especially her grandsons and great-grandsons.
