Her family wrote that "She left this earth." A funeral was
held March 4 at the Kotzebue Friends Church, and burial followed at
the Catholic cemetery, where she was laid to rest next to her husband,
Rodney Lincoln, Sr. A kind and respected elder of Kotzebue, Doris
was born Dec. 3, 1929 in Golovin to John and Minnie Fagerstrom. Growing
up on the shores of Golovin Bay gave Doris a deep appreciation for
her Inupiat culture. Doris left Alaska to complete her education,
graduating from Roosevelt High School in Seattle, where she met and
married Rodney Lincoln. The couple made Kotzebue their home and raised
six children: Rodney "Butch" Jr., Blanche "Bebix,"
Linda, Richard, Dood and Omie. Doris was proud to live and practice
her culture. She constantly made efforts to blend the Inupiat ways
of life with the 20th- and 21st-century style of living. Doris enjoyed
fishing on Kobuk Lake, bird hunting on the Noatak, picking greens
and berries, skin sewing and doll making. She enjoyed gathering and
preparing local delicacies that include Native seafoods, waterfowl,
berries and small and big game. Doris was devoted to her family and
honored to be a wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Her
family in return showered her with the same love, respect and affection.
Doris is survived by her sisters, Myrtle Johnson of Nome and Maggie
Olson of Golovin; and brother, Jerry Fagerstrom of Minnesota; and
her children, Victor Karmun (stepson), Linda and Roger Mauer, Richard
Lincoln, Dood and fiance Joe Carr, and Omie and Bob McGuffey. She
