Rare and great picture of Doris's brother Paul. That man was Jim Murphy who did a video of the 1993 weekend in Carmel.

Yes, brilliant photos, Alan, Howard and Ania!

Didn't realise that Paul Kappelhoff (right name?) had lived into adulthood - probably because I'd only seen pics of him as a child. And love that last Midnight Lace photo, Ania!

Paul Kappelhoff died the week after Doris's birthday in 1957 and, according to my notes, just a few days before she began work on "Teacher's Pet." His wife and two young sons survived him. Music promoter Sam Weiss recalled, "He was one of the nicest men I ever met." He must've been like his sister.

Beautiful pictures, very sad story about Doris's brother. Thank you everyone for sharing your pictures and Doris stories and important facts. I love this forum.

Judy, I don't know anything about Paul - what did he die of?

[ray]

Paul died from a baseball beaning from his childhood. Sadly it caused his death at a young age. After the baseball injury he had a condition for years from it.

[webmaster]

I had to look that up - it means, "hit in the head with a pitch." Or a ball being thrown at you, I would think.

Thanks Ray.

[ray]

Yes it happened from being hit in thehead with the baseball. A shame. Paul could have been with Doris all these years.

[webmaster]

Que Sera, Sera.

More fabulous pictures, thanks all. Lovely to see the one with Doris and her brother who was a handsome guy.

[Musiclover]

One small point: Per DD, Paul Kappelhoff's baseball injury didn't actually happen in childhood; during his college years, he played for a Cincinnati Reds' minor league team and that's when it occurred.

The above photos are wonderful, wonderful. I could write a song!!! Ha!

Paul died of a seizure, which was caused by the beaning on the head. They did not have medications back then to stop the seizures, which are plentiful now. Doris and Marty hired him to work for them and he and wife and children moved to L.A. from Cincinnati. He would not have been able to drive nor obtain a license to drive back then.

Thank you all for the beautiful pictures. The photographer always had a gorgeous subject when photographing Doris. The camera definitely loved her. And it is easy to see why. Always stunning.

Thank you all for the wonderful pictures and in particular for the one of Doris with her brother Paul. Doris has had so much tragedy in her life and is still able to smile, laugh and bring so much happiness and joy to others. What a remarkable woman and a inspiration!

[Lauren Benjamin]

Another great photo from Ania. Thanks very much, Ania for your fun photos!

I HAVE JUST SEEN THE FILM///fanrastic////

[Lauren Benjamin]

What an interesting photo, Michael. It looks like something that they may have on movie sets so that an actress in her outfit about ready to go in front of the camera and rest a bit without messing up her clothes.
