Dolly was a wonderful step-Mom. She was caring and always had a pleasant, fun-loving disposition. I can't remember one argument, maybe disagreements about who won more Monopoly games. We could always count on her spaghetti and meatballs- yum. I always thought she vicariously lived the life of Lucille Ball: "Ricky, Ricky
..." "Sorry honey, I have to go to the club tonight!" I'll miss her. She'll be there waiting to see us ... when it is our time to go!

There was and always will be only one Dolly. She loved to laugh whether it be at herself or something silly one of us kids would do. She lit up a room when she entered. Lynda, you were her sunshine and moonlight. My heart breaks for you. May she rest in peace and brighten the sky with her husband and son. What beautiful music and laughter will now fill the heavens
