With deep sorrow and profound gratitude for a life well-lived, we announce the passing of Doshie Hough, a beloved resident of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, who departed this life on May 20, 2025. She was a shining light to all who knew her—her smile radiant, her heart generous, and her faith unshakable.
Doshie was a woman whose presence exuded warmth, comfort, and unwavering strength. Known throughout her community for her kindness, she lived a life rooted in compassion, always ready with a word of encouragement or a helping hand. Her door was always open, her table always welcoming, and her spirit endlessly giving.
A devoted mother, Doshie found her greatest joy and pride in her children. She poured herself into their lives with selfless love, guiding them with wisdom, patience, and faith. Her role as a mother extended beyond her immediate family—she became a second mother to many, offering shelter, comfort, and counsel to those who found themselves in need. To be loved by Doshie was to know a love that was constant, sincere, and enduring.
In every aspect of her life, Doshie carried herself with grace and humility. Her faith in God was the cornerstone of her existence, a source of strength that carried her through life’s challenges and helped her uplift others. Whether she was volunteering at her church, supporting local families in crisis, or simply offering a listening ear, Doshie led by example, quietly transforming the lives of those around her through acts of kindness both big and small.
Her impact on the community of Upper Marlboro is immeasurable. Neighbors recall her generosity, friends remember her laughter, and all who crossed paths with her remember her light. She was the type of woman whose essence remains even after she has gone—her legacy of love will live on in every heart she touched.
Though our hearts are heavy with grief, we also carry immense gratitude for having known and loved Doshie Hough. Her life was a testimony to what it means to love without condition, to give without expectation, and to serve with joy. As we come together to mourn her loss, we also gather to celebrate her remarkable life, to honor her memory, and to continue walking in the light she so generously shared with the world.
She is survived by a loving family and a community who will forever cherish her legacy. May her soul rest in eternal peace, and may we find comfort in knowing that heaven has gained a truly extraordinary angel.
