I am so sorry to hear that a dear friend and cousin by marriage has passed away. In all the years I have known Delores I always admired her talent for sewing the most beautiful wedding dresses I had ever seen. I enjoyed talking to her af family functions and in her home about our children and mutual interest. Watching her boys grow into the wonderful sons you are today and knowing your families has been a pleasure. Know that my thoughts are with you and your families at this sad time and I will truly miss her. Love, Barbara Annis
