Doris Jeanette Hayton
Doris Hayton, 85, of Oswego, IL passed away exactly how she lived her life, in her own way on
her own time, at Bickford of Oswego surrounded by her family on September 29, 2024.
She was born on April 24, 1939 to Charles and Hazel (Dunkley) Irwin in Haverhill, NH. Doris was raised
in North Haverhill, NH where she met the love of her life, Jim Hayton. After graduating from
Haverhill Academy in 1957, she moved to Aurora, IL. She was then reunited and married to Jim.
They soon settled in Oswego, where they started their family. Doris worked as Vice President
for Oswego Community Bank for many years, was a member of Yorkville Trinity Church, and
always an active member of the community. She volunteered and donated her time to many
charitable organizations – Hesed House, Beecher Center, and her church just to name a few.
Doris was a strong, kind, loving and generous person. She was a woman of her word who could
always be counted on to lend a helping hand. She was someone you could confide in and was an
exceptional listener. Her guidance was invaluable. Doris was a woman of faith, living her life in
accordance with her faith. In her spare time, Doris loved to bake, garden, and spend time with
her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Above all, she loved her family and friends deeply
and touched so many lives.

of West Hollywood, CA, and Cindy Ohse (Bill) of Plano, IL; her grandchildren Stephanie
Modaff (Dan) of Millington, IL, Kristin Beringer (Eddie) of Yorkville, IL, Alex Cole of
Hinckley, IL, and Tara Ohse Newcomer of Yorkville, IL; her precious great grandchildren Elle

Hard (Denny), Pam Hutchinson (Jay), Bill Hayton (Pat), Carolyn Besch (Cliff), Sharon Konen,
Debbie Pearce (George) all of Aurora, IL, and Jerry Hayton of Sandwich, IL; along with many,
many dear nieces and nephews.
