Dolores E. Kelekovich, 91, peacefully died on Saturday, January 28, 2023, at the Solvay Hospice House in Duluth, MN.
She was born November 18, 1931, in Chicago, IL. to Estelle and Stephen Kamykowski. After living the first half of her life in the city, Dolores moved with her husband, Tony, to the country where they ran a heating business until they retired.
Dolores was fiercely independent and a devoted homemaker who always focused on caring for her family. She loved to cook and bake for everyone.
Dolores was a member of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Radisson, WI. In her younger years, she was active at the American Legion and worked on the local election board. Dolores loved fishing with her family in the summer and enjoyed tending to her garden.
Dolores was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Tony, brothers, Steve, Ernie, Bob, Ron and Glenn, and sisters, Joyce, and Gail.
She is survived by sons, Tony and Kerry, and sisters Carol and Barbara.
A memorial service will be held at a later date.
