She enjoyed dancing, bowling, and gardening, and she was an active member of the Metairie Red Hatters. Every Sunday, Dolores would dress in glamorous attire to impress her friends at the Jefferson Orleans Ballroom, radiating joy and elegance. Her home was a reflection of her personality-warm and welcoming, filled with crystals and beauty, truly a palace for those she loved. She embodied friendship, fun, and a deep-seated love for life, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew her.
