A lifelong resident of Lyme, she was born on July 30, 1933, to Roy and Olive (Blanchard) Balch and attended school at Lyme Center Academy. On August 4, 1951, she married Thomas E. Jenks and together they nurtured six children. She worked as a housekeeper in Hanover for many years. She was a great lover of the outdoors, going with her family on many hiking, fishing, and camping trips throughout their childhood. Doris had an expansive garden and spent a lot of time canning and preparing delicious meals with the produce she raised. She, along with her husband and children, also raised animals for food. She loved spending time at home amongst her family and it brought her great comfort to be at home for her final years. She is survived by three sons, Gregory and Douglas Jenks of Lyme, NH and Ronald Jenks of Hanover, NH; three siblings, Raymond Balch and Sharon Greatorex of Lyme Center, NH, and Sarah Estes of Barre, VT; five grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, as well as nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.
