    So very sorry to hear about Delores. The few times I was able to share with her were always fun. She was a character. I remember being at the St. Joseph’s Day Table with her one year and she jumped up and sang with the singers and accordian player serenading everyone. My prayers are with you Denise and all of your family at this difficult time.

    Delores and I shared laughs, cups of coffee, and family stories during her residency in Perrysburg. She loaned me a dress once for the Kentucky Derby!
    Our husbands worked together too.
    Delores is remembered as feisty and a fierce advocate for family.

    Denise, I never had the honor of meeting your mom, but from what I have read she was so loved by all, just like you. I am so sorry you and your family had to endure the pain of such a horrible disease, as I know it well. Praying her memories will make you smile through the tears.

I’m so honored for the 17 years of memories being in the family. Dolores was the glue that kept everyone close. I am so grateful to her and Tony both for the love and many memories they gave me, Gary and the boys. I wish you all Peace in knowing she is with so many that love her too.
