In Loving Memory of Doreen Antoinette Harrell

“I sought the Lord, and He heard me, And delivered me from all my fears.” 

— Psalms 34:4 (NKJV)

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Doreen Antoinette Harrell, 55, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Doreen went to be with the Lord on Sunday, February 9, 2025.

Born on July 2, 1969, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, she was the daughter of Anthony Joseph Harrell and Anita M. Harrell (nee Bloom). After graduating high school in Ohio, Doreen joined the military and served honorably in the United States Air Force. 

Doreen was a beautiful soul who cared deeply for others and loved to engage in conversation with everyone she met. Her compassion was evident in her warm smile and welcoming demeanor. She lived a life rooted in faith, devoted to Christ, and guided by the teachings of the Holy Bible. She was the cherished niece and cousin of many.

She is survived by her daughters, Estae Lawrence , Lateasha (Aaron) Matheson, and Shanice Lawrence; her mother, Anita Harrell; her brother, Dorian (Brandy) Harrell; and nieces and nephews, Brae Harrell, Anthony James Harrell Jr., Olivia Dennis, Gianna Harrell, and Lorielle Harrell. Doreen was preceded in death by her sister Eustacia Harrell, her brother Anthony James Harrell Sr., her nephew William Harrell and her father, Anthony Joseph Harrell.

A memorial service celebrating her life will be held at a later date, with details to be announced as soon as they are available.
