Her beautiful spirit lives on in all of the lives she touched especially her loving family.

Sweet Cindy- I wish I were closer to give you a big hug. You are in my heart and prayers as you grieve the loss and celebrate the loveliness of her who lives on in you!
Xoxo Mary, Claire, Sophia & Deron.
Your mom was always smiling, whenever I saw her!! She always asked about my mom, and thought very highly of her! When they were young, she, my mom, and some other ladies, in the neighborhood, would play cards, once a month, and they were very close! She also lost a cbild, her only son, and I admired her strenghth and faith!! She was an awesome, lady😁
I send my love to all the family. I loved Delores; my heart is broken. We spent a lot of time together at weddings, graduations, showers, baptisms, birthdays, and so much more. She was always fun to be around. She will be missed. Rest in peace my dear friend.
Delores always had a smile on her face and you could tell she was filled with joy. Sending you love, hugs and prayers during this difficult time. Our deepest sympathies in the loss your mother. Keeping you all in our prayers.
