Delores had a great sense of humor, when she would laugh you couldn’t help but laugh with her. She loved her family and kept them close to her and each other. She was the one that re-started family reunions. Delores was a Jill of all trades. Her intelligence and work ethic taught her many things, from carpentry to bookkeeping and lots in between, there wasn’t much she couldn’t do.
