Doris A. Eizember, 81, died Sunday, August 30, 2015, peacefully in her own home. Doris Eizember was born March 10, 1934 on the Christiansen family farm in Winona County Iowa. She was the middle child of Pearle and Walter Christiansen. As a child she lived in Woodbine IA and Moorhead, IA, before she and her family moved to Bremerton, Washington, where her father welded ships in the Naval Shipyards during WW II. She and her family moved back to Woodbine when she was in the 8th grade. She Graduated from Woodbine High school and faithfully attended the yearly high school reunions from that time until 2015. After graduating from High School she met Theodore (Ted) Eizember and they were married in 1953. Doris and Ted lived in Omaha Nebraska while Ted, pursuing his Air Force career, was stationed at Offutt Air Force Base. The first of 4 sons, Thomas Eizember, was born during their time in Omaha. Doris and Ted then moved to the Air Force Base in Goose Bay, Labrador, where Doris started her career of service with the military as the Executive Assistant to the Post Commander. During their tour at Goose Bay, a second son, David Eizember, was born. In 1960 Doris and her family were transferred from Goose Bay Labrador to Ellsworth Air Force Base and they bought a home in Rapid City, where she would lay down deep roots in the community and continue her career of government and professional service. Two more sons, Andrew (Chris) Eizember, and Robert (Bob) Eizember, were born in Rapid City. She would continue her career and the raising of 4 boys during her long and joyful life in Rapid City. In Rapid City, she continued to further her career first by working as a bookkeeper for Mr. Kulpaca in the Kulpaca building. Her next milestone in her career was working several years as the Executive Assistant to the State Adjutant General for the National Guard, Duane (Duke) Corning on Camp Rapid. Her most loved position was one that she enjoyed for more than 30 years -- claims representative for the Rapid City Office of the Social Security Administration. She loved that position because it allowed her to help many people wade through the myriad of Government forms and benefits of the Social Security system. Above all she enjoyed helping people get the benefits they deserved. While living in Rapid City she was an active member of the Business and Professional Women (BPW), the Jayceettes, the morning Optimist Club, and the Boy Scouts. With 4 boys, and with Ted being a Scoutmaster, she spent much happy time in support of the Scouting program in Rapid City. Doris has one of the few Boy Scouts of pendants that has four Eagle Scout pins attached -- awarded for her involvement with all four of her sons attaining the rank of Eagle Scout. Doris was also an avid organist and pianist. She started playing the organ and piano in her early teens, and she was a dedicated organist for every church she was a member of. Some of her churches were: First Christian Church in Woodbine, First Christian Church in Rapid City, First Presbyterian Church and Westminster Presbyterian Church. Doris was also very involved in the Westminster bell choir both playing and also training and leading the children's bell choir. Doris enjoyed donating time and resources to her church and she could be found at many Wednesday night events as well as every Thanksgiving at Camp Rimrock. Music was always a huge part of Doris's life. While living in Rapid City she was also a member of several vocal groups. These included the Sweet Adeline's and the Dakota Choral Union. She loved her sons and their wives: Tom and Joleen of Tryon, North Carolina, Dave and Cecilia of Austin, Texas, Chris and Frances of Asheville, North Carolina, and Bob and Traci of Wilmington, Delaware. She also dearly loved and was extremely proud of her grandchildren Jessica, Joshua, Chandra, Jiliane and Jordan. Happy were the times when she traveled to Delaware to watch Jessica as a Ballerina in the NutCracker or to see Jiliane in Salt Lake City on a ski trip, or to visit Jordan in Hawaii while he was assigned to the U.S.S Lake Erie in Pearl Harbor. Doris never had any daughters of her own but she enjoyed a special and loving relationship with each of her daughters-in-law. She considered each of them to be her daughters. After the passing of Ted, her husband of many years, Doris met Rex Field. Doris and Rex were a perfect match because of their love of music and his membership in the Grimm Band, a country western band, and a barbershop quartet. In her later years she could be found traveling the world with her sons their wives and grandchildren, riding motorcycle with Rex, watching model airplane flying, as well as playing and singing at several senior citizen centers in Rapid City. With their high spirited attitudes, Doris and Rex enjoyed several very happy years in service to the community as well as the lifestyle which the Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota afforded. She was preceded in death by her parents, Walter and Pearle Christiansen, her husband Ted Eizember and a granddaughter Chandra Eizember. She is survived by her sisters Elizabeth Wilson of San Bernadino, California and Neta Boustead of Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
