I loved Sister Delores. We worked on the education committee for the chamber together and she was a wonderful inspiration to me. Pat Snair

Mass at 9 am at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church on the first Monday in December will honor her, followed by a reception. All are invited, but if possible, let me know if you plan to attend,

She was truly inspirational, I'm 41 years old now and her name immediately comes out of my mouth when asked if I ever had that "special" teacher, the one that provided a path, the one that with either a stern voice or soft touch always was trying to make you a better person, not just a better student. I'm confident that I'm a better father, son and husband because of her. She will be missed.
