Doris Rose Botti Lipscomb

October 7, 1928 - March 11, 2022

Doris Rose Botti Lipscomb, 93, of Orlando, Florida passed away Friday, March 11, 2022. She was born on October 7, 1928 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Doris Rose was the daughter of Dorothy Rose McGrath Kreger and John Botti, twin sister to Dorothy Rita Botti, and wife of Clifford Carter Lipscomb. She was born in New Orleans where she grew up in the Irish Channel, graduated from Tulane University, and met her love, Cliff, dancing on the S.S. President Riverboat. She loved hosting dinners and always had a bottle of champagne in the house ready to celebrate with family and friends, especially with her social group known as the Turtles. All would agree that she extended her southern hospitality to everyone she met. Doris was a devoted wife, mother, and Catholic, who prayed the rosary daily with her devotion culminating in a special pilgrimage to Medjugorje. She touched the lives of many through doing what she loved most: assisting with tax returns as a Manager at H&R Block, teaching Sunday School at St. James Major Church in New Orleans, teaching CCD classes at Holy Family Church in Orlando, and especially by praying for others. After living more than 93 years, she passed peacefully in her sleep. She is survived by her daughter, Dorothy Rose Lipscomb Haggerty; son-in-law, Brian Haggerty; grandchildren, Shawn Haggerty (wife, Jen) and Sarah Haggerty Milner (husband, Chase); and great grandchildren, Aidan and Aubrie Rose Haggerty. A Funeral Mass will take place on Saturday, April 2, 2022 at Holy Family Catholic Church located at 5125 South Apopka Vineland Road, Orlando, Florida 32819. A celebration of her life will follow at her home. Her private burial service will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana at a later date.
