Doris Marie Tarbet Sweeten

1928 — 2022

Our beloved Doris Marie Tarbet Sweeten danced into this world June 24, 1928, in Burley, ID to loving parents Caroline (Kitty) Tarbet; a seamstress who tailored all her dresses so Doris always looked like a doll, and Bourke Dewain Tarbet a gentle man and a dairy farmer who tap danced with his darling daughter and caught her tears in a teacup! She waltzed through heaven’s gates on November 6, 2022, surrounded by loved ones. She lived an amazing 94 years!

She married the love of her life, and forever sweetheart Dewey H. Sweeten in 1947 in the Salt Lake Temple. Together they lovingly raised five children. Kandis (Denny) Jensen, Lori (Keith) Bird, Kellie (Mark) Cheever, Todd (Fran) Sweeten and Troy Sweeten. Together they created a strong family that worked together and played together! Doris and Dewey were very proud of their children. They brought great joy to their lives. Doris leaves a legacy of 72 +1 on the way, who will carry her immense love in their hearts. From her very own children to her great, great grandchildren, Doris has made each one feel so special and uniquely loved.
