Doris Olsen seems to be smiling all the time. The more she volunteers, the more she smiles. Doris loves to volunteer. RSVP's records show she has volunteered in at least 16 different Idaho Falls organizations. She has written a 200+ page history of her church and currently volunteers each Friday morning at the Museum of Idaho's Titanic Exhibit. She doesn't know how to slow down!
Doris was born in April 1917 and remembers her first real stint of volunteering with the Campfire Girls back in the late 1920's. After WWII, Doris became a school librarian and devoted her life to helping people share her love of books. Doris hasn't slowed down in her retirement years. She believes volunteering is a great way to stay active and meet new people and make new friends. Doris loves people and it shows. She's perpetually happy. One of her most favorite things to do is to read to children. She has a spark and flame of passion for books that shines forever in her spirit!
Doris serves on our RSVP Advisory Council and her input is always a delight. She doesn't mince words when it's time to give a pointed opinion. Doris always tells it like it is. Debby and I took Doris to lunch yesterday and a fine time was had by all. Afterall, Doris is the life of the party!
