Doy F. Cain, 86, of Ripley, formerly of Nellis and Emmons, West Virginia, passed away Wednesday, October 1, 2014, at Hubbard Hospice House following an extended illness. She was born August 2, 1928 in San Patricio, Texas, daughter of the late John Lee and Leola Belle Rogers Bussey. She was a homemaker and a lifelong member of the Church of Christ.

Some of her efforts included collecting coats for distribution to impoverished Lakota Indians, teaching adult women to read and be self sufficient, and caring for countless children.
