Doris Greenup , 89, longtime resident of Berthold, passed away Wednesday, December 16, 2020.

Doris was born May 15, 1931 in Berthold, ND to Earl and Olive (Hawes) Deaver.  She was raised and educated in Berthold, graduating from high school in 1950.  Doris earned her teaching certificate from Minot State Teacher's College in the summer of 1950.  She taught school at Vang Township School located south of Des Lacs, ND for a year.

Doris was united in marriage to Wilbur J. Greenup on October 22, 1951 in Berthold, ND.  They always called the community of Berthold home and were blessed with three children, Ella, Monte and Michael. Wilbur died on November 21, 2009.

Doris was an active member of the Berthold Baptist Church, participating in Mission Circle, playing the church organ and teaching Sunday School.  She held a state officer position for the American Baptist Women of ND and was active in the Berthold Senior Citizens.

She enjoyed traveling with her family and enjoyed 15 winters in Apache Junction, AZ. Doris treasured family gatherings that often included food, music, and games.  A scenic drive in the countryside, time in the garden, a crossword puzzle, pie making, or the reading of a book took up her spare time.
