Dorisca graduated from San Diego high school in 1944. Dorisca retired with over 34 years from the NASNI navy exchange as a food service supervisor. Upon retirement, she worked for San Diego city schools as a food service worker.
Dorisca’s fluency in Spanish allowed her to interact with many diverse populations in the community. She was a very independent, free soul that lived her life to the fullest and could often be found at her favorite casino or having a Mango margarita at her favorite Mexican restaurant or “running the streets” with her loving daughter-in-law. Dorisca could often be found enjoying various activities with her grand and great grandchildren.
