Mary Doman Obituary

Mary Anna Doman
August 9, 1941 – March 14, 2024

Lake San Marcos, California

Our mother, Mary Anna Doman, was born on August 9, 1941 in Deering, Missouri to George and Gladys McGee.

Mary Anna married her high school sweetheart, Thurman Stephen Doman, Jr., in 1962 and they were married for 57 years before Steve passed away on March 22, 2019. Our parents’ example of love and commitment has been a beautiful legacy for our family. Mary Anna was a military wife serving for 30 years with Steve who was an Army Chaplain. After Steve served a full military career retiring as a Colonel, they traveled the world on Holland America Cruise Line serving for 18 years as one of Holland America’s Chaplains.

Mary Anna earned a B.A. from San Francisco State University in Elementary Education and a M.A. from Boston University in Psychology and Counseling. Mary Anna’s life was filled with much joy as she and Steve raised their two daughters in the Netherlands, Germany and other military bases around the world. They also created a multitude of memories with their nine grandchildren in Carmel, California.

Mary Anna is survived by her brothers John (Marion) McGee, Thomas (Sandy) McGee, sister Sandra (Matt) Knighton, daughters Christine (Bill) Barcus and Rachelle (Eric) Nyenhuis, grandchildren Stephanie (Jared) Coleman, Anna (Johnny) Allen, Chloe (Garrett) Brush, Collin (Elisa) Nyenhuis, Wesley Scott (Emilee) Barcus, Deven (Hope) Riley Nyenhuis, Carston Nyenhuis, Chaylen Nyenhuis, and Grace (Clint) Decker, and great-grandchildren Peyton Coleman, Faith Coleman, Sonny Coleman, Quincy Nyenhuis, Elowyn Brush, Reign Riley, Reid Barcus, Rosemary Allen, Ty Nyenhuis, Marigold Allen, and Mable Brush.

Our mother’s life was filled with love and service with a profound love of Christ, as wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, school teacher, counselor, bible study teacher, and world traveler.

Her children rise up and call her blessed. Proverbs 31:28

We love you mom.

Christine and Rachelle
