Delores loved being outdoors and being active, caring for her many flowers and plants, raking leaves, and enjoying life. As a beloved wife, mother, and grandmother, Delores especially loved being with the little ones and would soak up every moment of their time together. She loved to cook and bake and cherished spending time with family and friends on a quiet afternoon, and while hosting holiday meals and at family cookouts. During the holiday season she would often bake over 100 apple and pumpkin pies and share them with everyone. Many fond memories of her will live on forever and her delicious pie recipes will also. She worked at Letterkenny Army Depot in the Buttonwood cafeteria for many years and developed countless lasting friendships and would always greet patrons with a genuinely warm smile and a friendly hello.
