Her farmer grandparents, great grandparents and great great grandparents were among the original settlers of Marion County near LaRue.
Two brothers, Russell E. Morthland and Allen D. Morthland and a sister, Dora McCoy Erwin (Morthland) predeceased her. She is survived by her sister, Carol M Wilson (Morthland) and husband, Richard Wilson, of Delaware. Doris was very proud of her nephew, Terry Lee McCoy, along with his wife, Mary McCoy (Thomas) of Richwood. They were devoted to her and thrilled to spend time together and share their children and grandchildren. Another nephew, Mark Cramer and his wife Debbie Cramer (Imbody) of LaRue, took her on a number of lovely trips including Maui, Hawaii. Other nephews: Roger A. Morthland (deceased) of Illinois, and Roger A. Morthland of Marion. Her niece is Melanie Schropp (Morthland) and husband, Arnie Schropp, of Fredericktown. Doris had 2 children: a son, Thomas E. Jacobs (deceased) and a daughter, Jill Colleen Bidwell (Jacobs) and husband, Gary Bidwell, of Marion. She also leaves 5 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren and 4 great great grandchildren. Her favorite "almost granddaughters" were the Wenig sisters, Stefani and Alyssa, along with their parents Kim and Dan Wenig. Born at home in New Bloomington, Doris lived most of her life there until moving to Marion in the 80s. Doris loved her 18 years at Marion General, where she worked as a post-surgery LPN.
