Delores was one of the sweetest people I have ever known. She always was welcoming, and loving to everyone who ever entered her home, or wherever she might be. I became part of her family by marriage, but to her I was family, and I felt the same way about her.

I worked with Delores for many years at the bank. She was truly a sweetheart! Never an unkind word about anyone. God bless you Delores! I know Jimmy was there waiting to welcome you home.
