I am so very sorry to learn of Doloris' passing. We were childhood friends and enjoyed spending nights at each other's homes. I am so sad that I hadn't called her lately. I live out in Missouri and hadn't been home to visit this year due to health issues. I know that Doloris is at peace now in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior. She missed her dear Ernie so they are now once again together. She loved talking about her family. Her sons were so good to her, she always related this to me. The other day I was thinking that Doloris would join our age 82 Club in November, but I didn't remember just what day. My sympathy and prayers are with her family.

Dolores and I became close friends, especially after her Ernie's passing. She always had a ready smile an upbeat attitude, even through her grief. She always continued to seek to serve and be involved in her church life. I am deeply sorry that I could not conduct her funeral, for I felt it a special honor to be asked to do so. I know she has a specil place in heaven. -Pastor K,

Dolores and I were close friends for several years after her husband's passing. She always was smiling and up-beat, even in her grief. Her faith was strong, her trust was complete, and her desire to continue to serve the Lord never faltered. It was with deep sorrow that I could not conduct her funeral, for I considered it an honor to be chosen to do so. She surely has a special place in heaven.

I was just thinking of Doloris when I heard a song we used to sing for worship at Dorr St. Church of God. Doloris had a profound influence on me and my children! She is singing with saints in heaven today!

I will miss her beautiful smile and loving ways. I loved listening to her stories she told to our children's ministry. Doloris will be greatly missed here on earth, but she will be a beacon of light in Heaven with God. My deepest sympathy for her family. Shine, Doloris, Shine!!!
