Dear Denise & family Sending you my deepest sympathy for the loss of your Mom. I only recently got the pleasure of getting to know Delores, when she was a roommate to my mom (Edith)@ Missouri Slope in Room #113 NE. I was so saddened to hear of her passing..she was a dear person, who I came to care about so much in that short time. She always had a smile & a laugh to share & made me feel as if I had known her forever. I know you will miss her on your wedding day...she was so excited for that special day...but I know she will be smiling down on you. Cherish each precious memory & hold them close to your hearts. God's blessings to you all !! Claudia Bachmeier
