I remember her smile and cheerful disposition and always helping others. She was associated with Queen of Martyrs Church and when I visited I at times found her in the Adoration chapel. What a good woman May she Rest In Peace.

Dear family of Dolores,

Dolores was a dear supporter of the Legion of Mary, for whom I am the Spiritual Director in the Archdiocese of Chicago. She promoted many of our events in the Chicago Catholic and was friends with the recently departed Gwen Curren, another Legionary.

I am so saddened to read of Dolores passing - Dolores and I were email buddies via the internet. We shared many stories and prayers. I am sure her former editor in Hawaii and her many nun friends will miss her also.
