The family of Dolores Caroline (Sehring) Eriksen of Palos Heights, IL, is saddened to announce her passing on March 25, 2026, at the age of 95. She passed peacefully at home surrounded by family.
Dolores is survived by her loving husband of 64 years, Allen Eriksen; daughters, Linda (Pedro) Barrios and Diane (Brett) Eriksen; and sister, Fran Sehring. She was preceded in death by her parents, Fred and Victoria 'Dora' Sehring.
Dolores's lifelong devotion to her church was evident in every chapter of her life. She gave generously of her time and spirit, always ready to lend a hand and serve wherever she was needed. In her later years, when her health no longer allowed her to attend services in person, Dolores was deeply moved by the kindness and support of her church family, whose calls, visits, and prayers reminded her that she was never far from the heart of the church community she loved so dearly.
