Dolores was born in Tacoma on September 15th, 1936 and went up to Heaven with the angels to be with our Lord Jesus on March 4, 2022.
Also known as “Dee”, she graduated from Stadium High School, then went to work as a bookkeeper in construction while raising her four children. She loved to spend time with her large family, especially for birthdays and holidays, and enjoyed gardening and going for walks; sometimes chatting with neighbors along the way.
Always supportive of her children and grandchildren, she loved to cheer them on at their sporting events. Dee was also a member of the Catholic Daughters of America and the Sons of Italy and she enjoyed eating and socializing with friends!
Dolores, Mom, you are loved and greatly missed.

She is survived by her children Dino, David (Whitney), Darren, and Gina; sisters Janet, Kathy (Rick), Margaret (Gary), Susan (Bob), and her grandchildren Addison, Garrison (Allyssa), Carson, and Ava as well as her nieces, nephews, and godchildren.
