Delores brought a lot of smiles, joy, comfort, and wisdom to the lives of so many. I remember her being at church when we got there and when we left. She always made it a point to say hello to everyone and make everyone feel noticed and important. She was always willing to lend a hand to someone in need. I feel so blessed to have had such an amazing woman in my life for so many years and then to have her in my childrens lives. May you all remember how selfless and faithful she was and smile knowing she’s in a better place having a blast!
