Doris E. Froman, 95, passed away May 25, 2017. She was born in Washington, D.C. in 1921 and graduated from Roosevelt High School in 1940. She began her career as a clerk typist with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) at their headquarters in Washington, D.C. She worked her way up to become Director of Purchasing, a position she held until her retirement in 1981.
