Dolores and our mom, Diane Lapolla Johnson, had a devoted, lifelong and special friendship. We were fortunate to be a part of many of their silly and fun episodes of laughter. On behalf of the Lawlor family we send our love and deepest sympathy. We will cherish her smile, her laughter and her spirit. May loving memories ease your loss and bring comfort.
