Jane and I were so sorry to just learn of our friend’s passing. Dolores was a giver in life with a friendly demeanor. She had a passion for living and was an authentic person. We fondly remember sharing walks together in Easton and our trip to Riverdance concert.
We offer our condolences to all of her family and friends. Dolores will be missed but but her generous spirit lives on!

I was a patient of Dolores at Rheumatology associates. She was such a delightful nurse, and the very best at IV sticks. She and Regina were the best team ever. I'm so sorry Regina, and friends and family of Dolores's. She will be greatly missed. I feel pretty devastated at the moment. Rest in Peace Dear Dolores.

I have know Dolores since she started working at the Rhuematology office in Brockton. She was one of my nurses who would get me ready for my infusion treatment. She was so sweet and happy and always helping everyone. I loved talking with her when I would go in.
She will be greatly missed.
