She was a watercolour artist and a beautiful seamstress. All creativity was her fortay. Dolores found delight in the small things in life...the rain, thunderstorms and fireflies. Her greatest pleasure was to share in the sense of wonder of little children. Her family and home were of great importance to her. She was fair and everyone got their share, no matter how small. Dolores was very much appreciated in the past, and will be terribly missed in the future. Her legacy of love, humour and compassion will live on.
