Doris I. (Bernard) Roy's Obituary
Doris Irene (Bernard) Roy, 81, of Methuen passed away peacefully on Monday, September 13, 2021 at the Prescott House Nursing Home in North Andover.
She was born in Methuen on May 20, 1940, daughter of the late Armand and Ruth (Fieldsend) Bernard. Doris was educated in the Methuen Schools and was a graduate of Tenney High School class of 1958.
Doris worked over 20 years as an Inspector for E.J.’s Systems. She enjoyed playing 45’s with her friends and enjoy watching her favorite jockey ride (son-in-law) at Rockingham Park. Doris loved to visit Casino’s and enjoyed going to Bingo with her friend Jane. She enjoyed sitting by the pool at her son’s house and loved her food.
