Thomas Dolan Obituary
Sonny was born on February 24, 1947, to Thomas R. and Delores A. Dolan in Lawrence Kansas. While in high school, Sonny enjoyed participating in gymnastics. He also worked for the Lawrence Journal World inserting ads into the newspaper. After graduating from Lawrence High School in 1965, Sonny went on to serve in the US Army.
On January 9 1980 Sonny was united in marriage to Jo Ann Horner in a ceremony in Oskaloosa, Kansas.
Sonny owned and operated North Side Antiques and Auction Service, located in North Lawrence for over 17 years.
After retiring, Sonny spent his time acquiring rental properties and enjoyed maintaining them as well as meeting those who would become his tenants. Those who knew Sonny, will remember that after a good visit with friends and family, he would leave with a smile and the phrase "Glad you got see me," and we always were.
Sonny was preceded in death by his parents, his younger brother Monte Reed Dolan, a grandson Tucker Dolan, and his wife Jo Ann Dolan.
He is survived by his sister Deborah Skeet, (Billy) of Tonganoxie, Kansas, son Thomas "Tommy" Dolan III, (Trish), of Topeka, Kansas, stepsons William Haas (Sinthia) of Lawrence, Kansas, Mike Muilenburg (Valerie) of Salina, Kansas, and six grandchildren
