Dolores Hawkins Phelps

I only met Dolores once but she was a friend of my mom's and I was truly struck by her beauty and elegance even in old age. I was very sad when I heard that she had died and now my mom is gone too so it strikes an even deeper cord with me. I even see that mom wrote something for Dolores below. I'm very grateful I had the privilege to meet such a fine lady and send my condolences to Stewart Sr., John and Stewart on this the third year anniversary.

Dolores was a beautiful lady inside and out. She always talked about her boys and how proud she was of each one of you. Of course Stuart Sr., You were her sole mate and love of her life. The last time we spoke, she said “I have been very blessed in my life, I have traveled all over the world. I married a good man and he gave 3 wonderful boys. Along with that came my daughter in laws and grandchildren, what more could one old woman ask for”. Dolores, you are the youngest and most beautiful...

Bill,
So sorry to hear about your Mom’s passing.

There was no one like Deloris!She was truly the most elegant lady , always ! She will always be the epitome of true grace . Her style and wit were always on point . Of course she was the first super model . Beautiful and gorgeous she was . Like everyone, I just adored her . She will be truly missed. My love to her family.

I always admired Delores’s grace elegance and style. I always enjoyed talking to her at the Independence Historical Society meetings.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family❤

Dear Stuart, Michael and I are very sad to learn of Dolores’s passing. We would like you and your family to know how much we enjoyed having lunch with the two of you, seeing Jerry’s film at the MFAH and listening to Dolores and Jerry reminisce on stage about their time in New York.
We send our deepest sympathies to you and your family.
Fondly, Nina and Michael Zilkha
