Doris E. Curry, age 72, of Williamsville, formerly of Sherman and Buffalo passed away on Friday, February 25, 2011 at Heritage Manor in Springfield after a long battle with cancer.

She is survived by daughters; Brenda (Mark) Esker of Williamsville, Allison (Mike) Kepler of Omaha NE, and son; Michael (Rita) Curry of Riverton, brothers; Delbert (Linda) Weidhuner and Ronald (Karen) Weidhuner both of Athens, Fred Jr. (Helen) Weidhuner of Greenview, and a sister Evelyn (Roger) Beeler of Normal.

She is also survived by her grandchildren Jason, Ashley (Fiancee Dustin Constant), Casey Esker, Erika & Cassidy Kepler and Joey & Meg Curry.

Doris was born April 14, 1938, in Athens, IL the daughter of Fred & Lena Miller Weidhuner.

She is preceded in death by her parents, a brother William Weidhuner, and her sisters Gloria Felton & Katherine Peddicord.

Doris married Charles Curry in 1956, and then later divorced but remained friends.

She was a co-owner of Curry's Super Way in Williamsville.

Doris was a member of the Williamsville Christian Church.

She enjoyed coming to watch the Esker grandchildren play in various sports at Williamsville Schools. She was very proud of her Bullet Athletes. She was proud of her Esker Grandsons serving in the Air Guard and prayed daily for them as they served tours of duty overseas.

She relished the thought of her Ashley entering the teaching profession. She was looking forward to seeing Ashley being married this May and will be there in spirit watching over the ceremony.

She enjoyed traveling to Omaha, NE where she took great pride in watching her granddaughters Erika Rachael and Cassidy Rose at their dance recitals, school plays, and several soccer games.

She enjoyed volunteering her time with the Mid-State Kart Club and was extremely thrilled to witness the start of her Grandson Joey's racing career at Mid-State Raceway. Through her valiant fight with cancer she was able to witness the birth of her last grandchild, Mary Elizabeth Grace, whom she affectionately called Meg.

She will especially miss her special companion, Molly, the lab who always was by her side as she spent time recovering at her daughter's house.

Visitation will be held on Monday, February 28, 2011 from 5:00 PM until time of service at 7:00 PM at Mott & Henning Funeral Home, in Athens, IL.

Pastor David Beals will be officiating.
