Doris Griffin Dellinger, 74, of Brentwood Road in Winston-Salem, passed away Thursday, November 27th, 2025, at Pennyburn Nursing Home in High Point.
Born on January 19th, 1951, in Forsyth County, Doris was the daughter to the late Roy Jasper Griffin Jr. and Erma Portis Griffin. Doris worked for many years at Hanes Brands, but her true life’s work, her greatest pride and joy, was caring for her family. Doris had a gift for loving people fiercely and without any hesitation. She raised her children and grandchildren with unwavering devotion, stepping into every role life asked of her with quiet strength, honor, and a deep sense of responsibility.
Whether cheering from the bleachers, offering a listening ear, or simply showing up when she was needed the most, Doris was the steady center of her family. Her home was a place where everyone felt supported, understood, and unconditionally loved.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her beloved husband, Kenneth Scott Dellinger, and her daughter Shannon Michelle Dellinger.
Doris is survived by her sister, Mitzi Griffin (Dawn Sundstrom) of Greensboro, and two cherished sisters-in-law, Jeanna and Judy. She also leaves behind a family shaped by her guidance and bound together by her love: Tracy Dellinger, Brandy Warren, Brittney Dellinger, Kenneth Dellinger, Hunter Warren, Trista Warren, Noah Dellinger, Addie Asbury, Marlee Asbury, and Kenzi Asbury.
Doris lived her life in service to others. Her family was her world, and she was theirs. The legacy she leaves is one of kindness, sacrifice, and a deep abiding love that will live on in the generations she has raised.
A memorial service to honor Doris’s life will be held on Sunday, November 30th, 2025, starting at 3 pm, at Davidson Funeral Home in Winston-Salem, with a visitation beginning an hour prior at 2 pm.
