Debra Maclean wrote a sympathy message

“Dolores was the funniest sweetest woman. We had so many laughs over the years. I loved her dearly. She was a hoot during a Pub Crawl in the early 90’s with DIRECTIONS. She was kind and compassionate and damned funny. Up for anything! A truly beautiful woman”
