    Dolores was an important part of my husband’s childhood. I think what I remember most fondly was her wicked, irrevelant, and sometimes naughty sense of humour . No sweet little old lady for Dolores–good for you, girl!

    May our cousin, Delores, rest in peace. My sister, Judy, and I loved Delores very much. We always enjoyed visiting and exploring her family’s old beautiful home on Warner Street that her father Harold’s father built in 1905 when Delores’ dad was a small boy.
