Delores Adeline Zoellick passed peacefully from this life the morning of March 29th. She was surrounded and supported by her loving family during the last days of her life. Delores was born to Louis and Mabel Else in Watertown, WI on July 30th, 1928. She started dating the love of her life, Charles Zoellick at the age of 15. They were married on September 20, 1947, at St. Marks Lutheran church. They had a loving son, Steven Charles Zoellick on March 24, 1952.

Delores worked at Bell Telephone Company for 30 years, retiring in 1977. She was a member of Ladies Aid for many years. She enjoyed traveling with her husband throughout 48 states. They spent many winters in Arizona and Florida. She also loved playing cards and polka dancing.

She is survived by her husband of 78 years; Grandson Brad (Casie) Zoellick, Granddaughter Jodi (Jay) Pirkel; Great-Grandchildren Cole Zoellick, Sawyer Pirkel and Hannah Dathan.

She was preceded in death by her parents and her son. A funeral service will take place at St. Marks Lutheran Church at a later date. Memorials, if desired, may be made to St. Marks. The family would like to thank The View Assisted Living and Rainbow Hospice in Johnson Creek for the heartfelt care they provided her the past three years.
