As the owner of Doris Tanner's Flowers, Inc., at the age of eighty-eight years old, Doris Tanner Ross decided to fulfill the request of her many friends and family over the past years to tell her story. The story begins in 1924 in Sullivan's Hollow. She had many struggles during the depression era as a war widow with a baby to raise. With God as her guide and her mother as her support, Doris made many decisions that would adversely affect her future and the future of her daughter. Doris is currently still working and running her own business. She opened her shop in 1965 and relocated her business in 1996. Doris still strives to please her wonderful customers. She attributes her success to treating people the right way, just as God would want her to. Although her customers appreciate her for her talent, her grandchildren and great grandchildren love her as their "Day Day!" In their eyes, she is most famous for her Sweet Potato Pie! No matter what path one has crossed with Doris Tanner Ross, she will be remembered as someone special. Philipians 4:12-13 "I know how to be poor and I know how to be rich, too. I have been through my initiation and now I am ready for anything anywhere: full stomach or empty stomach, poverty or plenty. There is nothing I cannot master with the help of the One who gives me strength. (New English American Translation)

D.D. Dougherty, Lillie Dougherty and the Early Years of Appalachian State

By: Doris Perry Stam

The 125-year history of Appalachian State University rests on the ambitious yet selfless dream of empowering impoverished mountain families through education. Dauphin Disco Dougherty, his wife Lillie Shull Dougherty, and his bachelor brother, Blanford Barnard Dougherty, founded a small semi-private high school in 1899 at great personal cost and would only be able to sustain its growth to a state teacher's college through their fortitude of character and commitment. Drawing extensively on primary sources, some of which have appeared in no previous book, this history presents the first 30 years of the university's life and background. With over 100 historic images and dozens of first-hand accounts and interviews, the text uncovers forgotten foundations and fascinating personal details of the school's founders, bringing the first 30 years of App State to life.
