Doris V. Bowers Ainscough, 96, of Plainville, Indiana, passed away with her loving family by her side. She was born on March 7, 1923 in Odon, Indiana to Earl and Margaret J. (Porter) Franklin. Doris was married to Allen Dwight Bowers from October 31, 1942 until his death in 1982 and Porter Wayne Ainscough from September 17, 1988 until his death in 2009. Doris then had a special companion, John Lease, until his passing in 2014.
Doris loved everyone she came in contact with and cruising around town and countryside on her golf cart. After retirement, she enjoyed traveling all over the US (with her nephew, Smitty and his wife, Bev), taking cruises and river rafting.

Doris enjoyed them with her as often as expected and then some.
