caring for others was her passion.
Dolores enjoyed crafting, being outdoors camping and spending time working on her
flower garden. She was a member of the Dirty Dozen bowling league and loved to get
together with her friends to play cards. On any given day you could find her watching
movies, her favorites were the westerns starring John Wayne. Dolores was a Titanic
buff, she loved researching, collecting, reading about and of course watching the movie,
it was her absolute favorite.
Family was everything to Dolores, she loved big and made sure her family knew they
were loved and cared for. She cherished all the lasting memories they were able to
create together. Her love didn’t stop with her family, it extended to her fur babies as
