Dolores Schumann quietly passed away after a sudden illness at age 85. She was preceded in death by her beloved and devoted husband of 53 years, James Edward Schumann, in 2006.

Rally, Jared and Lauren Schumann, and great-grandchildren Joseph and Zoe Zarr, and was preceded in death by son-in-law Richard Zarr.
