Delores respected people and she carried that in her character everyday. She always wanted to do the right thing and she instilled a lot of her beliefs into her son Mark Deamer, Sr. Delores was kind and gentle with people.

You could always learn something from Delores with out a doubt. She was a very special person indeed.
