So very sorry to hear about Mrs Deleon's passing. I grew up next door to her when I lived with my grandmother, Alice Dugas. She and Mr Deleon were always such sweet people. I am keeping your family in my prayers.

Sweet Dolly, my heart was broken today to hear of your passing. Only 6 days ago Dan and I stopped in to see you before driving back to Wyoming. You and Tilly we're so gracious, warm and welcoming of us. We shared memories and laughed together in spite of you having a bad day physically. Even on bad days you were an encouragement. You were always positive, had a smile and only had good things to say about others. I loved how you praised Tilly for taking great care of you and how you loved your boys. You suffered great loss in this life and still maintained a happy heart. You were a great example to us all on how to live life to the fullest. It has been my privilege and honor to know and love you and to experience your love for me. Us kids loved watching you dance so long ago in Venezuela. Again, showing us your joy for life. I pray your best years are ahead of you dancing in heaven in God's grace and mercy. Thank you for loving our family so faithfully over all these years. We will miss you terribly but remember you with deep love and respect. Tilly, David and Michael - thank you for sharing Miss Dolly with us and know we are praying for each one of you. God's grace, mercy and comfort be with each of you. We love you.

I am so sad to hear that Dolly has passed on. I will miss her so much and am SO thankful that I was able to spend time with Tilly & Dolly this past April. We had a great time that day! The things I will always remember and cherish about Dolly are: * how much she loved life, * how she always had encouraging, uplifting words for me and for others, * the great friend that she & Tilly have always been to our family, especially to Mom & Dad (60+ years!!) * that in spite of all the struggles in her life, she maintained a contagious laugh and engaging outlook on life. It is sad to know that I won't hear her voice or her laugh again in this life...but then, there is eternity, and I hope to see her there. Dolly, go with and be with God the Father and Jesus Christ His Son! Life everlasting and joy. Tilly, Dave, and Michael: I am so sorry for your loss. I pray that the beautiful memories you have will bring you peace and comfort in the days and months ahead. God be with you all. Love always, Gail (Weakley) Gerik
