Adolfo Varela Dominguez

Adolfo was a hard working and caring man. He helped anyone he could when he could. He was known as "Cowboy" by many. His pride and joy were his sons. He treated his daughter in law like a daughter, and his grandchildren and great grandchildren, and great niece were the apples of his eyes.

He loved and cared for his wife of 48 years, Pauline. Through good times and bad times, they were inseparable. They were known to each other as "ugly" and "Niger". Adolfo was an extraordinary gardner and he loved his yellow flowers. He played bingo and was mostly a gambler in Central City and Cripple Creek. He did go twice to Las Vegas. He enjoyed walking in nature.
