Dear loving friends and family of Delorice, 
  My mother, Jean Bowman, joined my dad in death on February 2nd, 2014.  I'm thier daughter Marilyn and I just want you to know that Mom spoke very highly of Delores.  They were both so proud of Osborn Road Baptist, it was hard for everyone when it closed. Mom so enjoyed going to lunch or shopping with the group of friends from the church and Delorice always picked her up. Now they are together again with friends and family in heaven.  Praise be to God and God Bless you all!

Greetings! Deloris organized many a great lunch or dinner after church; for our former church members and friends at; Osborn Road Baptist Church.

We and the world; plus me; will miss her charm and wit and great cooking!

I'll look forward to those great dinners in Heaven, should she still be cooking them!

I just heard about Delorice passing and it felt like hearing she had gone to visit friends. I lost my mother, Regina McElroy, one year ago, and I recalled that she was a guest of Delorice at a timeshare in Maui many years ago. At the regular monthly breakfast of former co workers I got to know her a little, and I feel for the family that remains behind. I know how hard that is. I picture both ladies in mumus on the beach watching a beautiful sunset without having to worry about sunscreen.

I will always remember Deloris serving in the church kitchen at ORBC. The kitchen was her territory and she wasn't afraid to let us know it. She was faithful and willing to always help, whether it was for VBS, Youth, or Potlucks, etc. I was also always impressed with her love for her two grandchildren, Breanna and Brandon! It was common to see them following close behind her. I know she will be greatly missed by her family but I'm thankful for the assurance of where she is spending eternity. Mom and I had the pleasure of visiting with her a week before she passed and she had peace and confidence in knowing where she was going! Much love to the family during this time!

Sorry-For your lost.My prayers is with you Anna Marie & Dave

My Deepest Sympathy to all the family ,She was a lovely person. She is in a better world. Some day we shall meet. Kiki

I did not know Delores well.  However, my mother, Jean Bowman, considered her a dear friend from Osborn Road Baptist Church.  There were about four or five ladies that would try to get together for lunch just to keep in touch.  They enjoyed each others company very much.  My mother proceeded your grandmother in death on February 2nd 2014.  I truly believe they are busy as all get out up there in their healthy state talking, singing and laughing.  Praise God and Peace be with you.

So Sorry. The family is in our prayers. May God bless you during this difficult time. All our love... Floyd and Bert.

Aunt Delorice...I am so saddened to hear this news, but I know you are in Heaven where pain and suffering does not exist. You were such a strong woman and very out spoken in all the things you believed and I truly respected you for that...there just aren't too many people like you. RIP ~ Rest In Paradise. Kim & John Armitage

Prayers being lifted as high as the heaven. She will be missed greatly.
Love to you all.

I hope in the days a head you find comfort in knowing she is walking with our Lord pain free. I also hope in the months a head when you look back on all the wonderful things everyone has to say about Aunt Deloris that it will fill your heart with many loving memories. Love & Hugs

Grandma, we'll always remember your delicious salmon biscuits and gravy you made for the family and how wonderful you were. We love and miss you and glad for the memories we shared together. You will forever be in our hearts and thoughts. -Brad, Lisette and Benjamin Wright

She was a wonderful Friend. Will miss her. We played cards and dominoes for a lot of years.
She had such a sweet spirit. Glad she has such a wonderful family who loves her very much.

My prayers and thoughts go out to all of you at this time <3 it was a pleasure knowing Delorice like my own grandmother and making so many memories with the family! She was an amazing woman, mother, and grandmother! This is not goodbye, this is see you later! Heaven has truly gained an amazing angel <3

I'm sorry for your loss. Delorice was a wonderful and kind person. I will miss her.

It was a privilege to know such a strong woman. She will be missed dearly by the Cobo family.

Grandma, there are just no words to describe how much I miss you. It just doesn't seem real. I am the woman I am today because of you and it was an honor to care for you in the end, just as you have cared for me throughout the years. 
I love you so much it hurts, but find comfort in know that you went in peace, and are pain-free, rejoicing in the presence of our Lord. Even in the end, your faith was unwavering.
Until we meet again, I will hold tight to the memories we shared, the smiles exchanged, and you will forever remain in my heart.
