Providence Dabolish

Providence was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and a wonderful friend. Her giddy laugh would light up a room, and her naughty jokes would make anyone laugh. For over 20 years, she worked as a bookkeeper for a flooring and carpet company and later started working part-time at Marshalls, since she was so bored after retirement, where she also loved to shop. She found joy in shopping, gardening, attending Sunday morning catholic church services, visiting casinos, traveling and spending time with her family.

She is survived by her 3 sons, Burton Dabolish of St. Leonard, MD, Eric Dabolish of Parrish, FL, and Jason Dabolish of Chester, MD. Providence also leaves behind her grandchildren Rachel Rodriguez, Kayla Alvardo (Anthony), Justin Dabolish, Kristen Dabolish, and Alyssa Dabolish. Additionally, she is survived by her sisters Gloria Mendez, Susana Mendez, Ana D. Mendez, her brother Aracelio Mendez, numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and many others she considered family. Providence was preceded in death by her husband, Burton J Dabolish, her parents Aracelio Mendez and Maria Aviles and her siblings Juan Mendez, Luman Mendez, Fernando Mendez, and Filonema Mendez.
