Delores Lindell-known as Mom, Momma, Granny, and GiGi-passed away peacefully on September 6, 2025. She was born in Fairmont, Minnesota.
Delores was a woman of creativity and adventure, finding her greatest joy in time spent with family. A gifted storyteller, she brought humor and warmth to every gathering. She enjoyed crafting, decorating, painting, wallpapering, hunting, and fishing. Delores shared her artistic talents through her businesses, The Lady Bug craft store and The Hanger wallpaper and painting service.
She is survived by her children Kathie (Tom), Joni (Rick), and Jaynee (John); grandchildren Jessica, John (Heather), Sara (Kristine), Shawn (Alisha), Katrina, Brandon (Rochelle), Katelyn (Dan), and Connor; great-grandchildren Andilynn, Carsen, Sophia, Ridley, Jennessa, Dakota, Brecken, Teddy, and Ronan; and her brother Bob and his family. She is also remembered with love by special friends Deb and Joann, along with her real-life guardian angel, Jeremiah.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Richard "Dick," her former spouse Freddie, granddaughter Jenna, and great-grandson Robin.
A celebration of life will be held this fall at the family cabin in Michigan, her most cherished place. Her family takes comfort in knowing her faith has carried her home.
