Sending my love and prayers to all the sisters at the Villa. I remember and will continue to pray for Sr. Dolores. She was so sweet to me growing up in St. George parish and school, and remembered me on my Wedding day. I still carry & pray the rosary she gave me. I feel blessed for having known her. Rest in peace, Sister. My sympanthy to the sisters, her family, and friends.
