Dollie was born and raised in Oklahoma and moved to California in 1943 to make a better life
for her family. Dollie was a giver and her nurturing spirit was evident in all that she did. Dollie

dearly and her grandchildren were the apple of her eye. She will be remembered as a loving
mother, grandmother and friend. She will truly be missed.
