Doris Caroline Severin

(nee Blemaster), 92, passed away on Tuesday, May 17, 2022. Proceeded in death by her most beloved husband for over 71 years, Lester Walter Severin. Beloved daughter of the late Floyd and Olive Blemaster. Dearest sister to John Blemaster (Pam), Shirley Zink (Robert), Marian Newburg (Gene), and the late Jeanette Bolles (Robert). Dearest mother to Deborah Beezley (Michael), Susan Neu, Christopher Severin (Donna), and Gregory Severin; dearest grandmother of Daniel, Corey (Ali), Patrick (Theresa), Katie (Joshua), Hannah, and Catherine, and great-grandmother of Flora. Dear sister-in-law, aunt, and friend to many.

Born in Salamanca, New York, Doris was a graduate of Olean High School. She met her husband, Lester, in Olean while he was playing professional baseball for the Brooklyn Dodgers. After his playing career, Les and Doris moved to St. Louis, where they raised four children. A true stay-at-home mom, Doris loved spending time in her yard, talking with friends and neighbors, tending to her flowers, and birdwatching. She was most proud of her handsome husband and her family. She gave us much love. Her greatest joy was the time spent with her family and friends. We will miss her kindness, strength, warmth, giving, acceptance, and love for the rest of our lives.

Services:  A funeral service and interment will be held on Monday, May 23  at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery at 10:15 a.m.

    I was sad to read of your mother’s passing. I enjoyed working with her at Hixson and stopping to talk with her on my many walks way back when! She and Jan Haddad were very special friends.
    My sympathy to you all.
