She was born in Wabash County to George Leondus and Cleo Marie (Clingaman) Pottenger. She grew up in North Manchester graduating from Laketon High School in 1945. She was active in the high school band for four years playing the bass drum.

Doris married Loyd F. Saner on June 30, 1947 in Akron by Rev. Daniel Slaybaugh. She worked at Brian's, printing bomber wires for W.W.II for two years and then at the Heckman Bindery both in North Manchester until she got married. She then worked at Johnson Publishing Co. in Pittsburgh, Pa., where she lived while her husband attended watch-making school.

During the life of Doris, she expressed her love and faith of Jesus Christ and how she believed in answered prayer. Through the years she and her husband had been through several health disorders and been healed.
