She was born and raised in Oregon, then moved to Reno, Nevada, where she lived for several years, then Utah, before moving to Missouri in 2004. Delores was a certified nurse’s aide and took a lot of pride in her work. In her spare time she enjoyed art, especially drawing. She loved her birds and dogs and spending time with her family. Delores was a loving mother who would enforce her “corporal punishment” on her children when they needed it. She loved Terry, her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews and they loved her. We will miss her, but will always have many fond memories that we will treasure.
