Doris was born Aug. 5, 1937, in rural Cedar Rapids, the daughter of Charles and Bertha Odland Coleman. She graduated from Wilson High School in 1956. On June 14, 1957, Doris married David Leonard. They celebrated 60 years of marriage. She was a bookkeeper at Allen Motor Co., a seamstress for Stegman Custom Draperies and a sales associate at Petersen Harned Von Maur.

Doris will be remembered for her love of Jesus and her love for people. She got up early every day to spend time with Jesus and pray for her family and friends, whom she loved deeply. She was a longtime member of Sharon United Methodist Church. Doris enjoyed any chance she had to spend time with her family, to go out with the Red Hat Society or to just grab a cup of coffee with her friends.

Instead of flowers, memorials may be directed to Sharon United Methodist Church.
