Although Dorene had many career accomplishments to be proud of, The one thing Dorene was most proud of was her marriage to Donald Griffith on May 12th, 1990. Dorene and Donald loved each other immensely, they were made for each other. They moved out to Oldtown, Idaho where they built their dream property and over the years have grown there while raising their many lab puppy’s and sharing it with all of us kids. They always had an open door policy, and made sure you ALWAYS knew that. Unfortunately, we lost our beloved Uncle Don in 2021 and now find peace knowing that the two love birds have now reunited at the garden of promise on the property they both loved so much.
