We were saddened to hear about Delores' passing. It was very sudden. Her presence is very much missed. Looking towards her house, mine is right behind hers it was comforting to know that she "was watching" over the neighborhood, taking delight in our sons, Robert and Michael or watching our dog Cody. I knew she was very passionate about "how things ought to be" and the vote privelege for Americans.
Will miss her.
Sincerely her next door neighbors and friends,
Diane, Larry, Robert and Michael Thacker

Dear Family of Delores,
This morning I belatedly read the obit about the death of my SJA classmate,
Delores. Because of another funeral I am attending this morning, I am unable
to attend the graveside service at Highland Memory Gardens Cemetery.
My deepest sympathy to the family. I last visited with Delores at our
annual SJA Class lunch last September. She was a loyal attendee each year
when we would get together with our DM classmates. I will see that a Mass
is offered in her name from our 1950 Class during this year.
If possible, please send me a memorial program so that I can share with
our school friends at our next luncheon. Thank you!
