I remember Dee as the leader of the Tuesday rosary group at SEAS and a creative woman. She called me up one day and wanted me to pick up as many pine cones as I could so she could supply pine cones to a number of women to make wreaths. My station wagon was full of black garbage bags containing pine cones. My condolences to all her relatives and friends.

First and foremost my condolences to all her family !!! You were all very loving and attentive to your mom. She appreciated and loved you guys very much !!! She always spoke of you guys with a smile on her face.
I had the pleasure of getting to know Dolores. She was a kind, fun spirited soul, who loved her Polka !!! She loved to dance. So much so that she taught me how to Polka just so i could dance with her anytime a polka song was playing. Polka and music would give her all the energy in the world... We both enjoyed music, dance and laughter!!!
Dolores was also a devoted Catholic and many times we would talk about faith and she would encourage me to be a good Catholic. Thank you Dolores for always being a kind, free spirited soul. Thanks for all the fun we had together... I will think of you as i always have when i hear a polka song especially "Beer Barrel Polka" You will be missed. May you Rest in Peace and dance to all the polka songs in heaven
