Dolores Del Vallez

Dolores was a beautiful person, both inside and out. She married the love of her life, William, on April 15, 1967, and together they shared 55 wonderful years of marriage filled with love, laughter, and devotion.

She was a loving sister to Ethel, Richard, and Dennis, and a devoted mother to her three children, Billy, Doreen, and Kerri. One of Dolores’s greatest joys in life was her family. She was a proud grandmother to seven beautiful grandchildren, Erin, Brennan, Madison, Cailey, Jillian, Brody, and Gavin. She cherished every moment spent with them and created countless memories that will be treasured forever.

Dolores was an active and vibrant woman. She was a very religious person and was a Eucharistic minister for years at Good Shepherd Church . When her children were younger, she enjoyed many years in a bowling league. She loved golfing with her sister Ethel, spending time on the water boating, and relaxing at the beach. She especially enjoyed traveling and taking cruises with her husband Bill and other family members. Family vacations to the Outer Banks were among her favorite times, bringing everyone together to share laughter, love, and unforgettable memories. For those who knew her, she loved to have a good time and never shied away from a good cocktail hour.

Dolores always took pride in her appearance and was rarely seen without her hair beautifully styled, her nails done, and her makeup perfectly applied. She carried herself with grace and elegance, but it was her kind heart, loving spirit, and unwavering devotion to her family that made her truly beautiful.

She will be deeply missed and forever loved by all who knew her.

We know she is at peace with our dad up in heaven now but she will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
