Dolly was predeceased by her parents, father of her children Walter, sister Joan, son Corie and grandsons Ron and Luke.
She enjoyed baking, Yahtzee, The Price is Right and country music. Many people will remember her avid interest in the boys sports and the enjoyment she got from being the scorekeeper for baseball. The boys loved that she was hell on wheels and wasted no time in getting them to their games.
Her family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to Mount Ida Mews for their excellent and loving care of their mother and grandmother. Special thanks to the staff of SLGH for their care and compassion in Dolly's final days.
