To my dear sister in law Lucy and your siblings: Although I did not know your mom personally, when I first met her my impression of your mom was that of a quiet and strong woman. I trust you will be strengthened with all power and might in your inner man. May the gentleness of God's spirit surround you with peace.  

Lucy I have such fond memories of your mother. She always welcomed me in your home with such a sweet smile. She had a quiet strength.  Always so kind and gentle.  I will always cherish those memories.  

I remember your mother Ias a  beautiful, humble, sweet and kind lady. She sure loved her family and my condolences and prayers are with you, her children, and her grandchildren and all those who loved her and will be missing her.
Sincerely and with all my heart,
 Stella Ramirez

Just sharing a photo of my Grandma D, Tiny and my son (her great grandson) Isaiah McKenzie. Glad you had the chance to meet my children and share memories with them.

Grandmother,

I find so much peace knowing that you no longer have to suffer (by any means)  in this realm. I know that the day I made you a grandparent was special.  Despite the pain you endured, you always found a way to comfort others even in their darkest moments of life. Mom replays your voice mails over and over just to hear your sweet voice.  My memories of you and my childhood go so far back.  Every holiday, birthday, hospital visit, home visit, celebration of any sort is still with me replaying in my head. Especially the memories on Sixth Street and the remodeling of your two story house. Or in the basement where all of your harvest and jars were kept! I used to love playing in the basement. Or our trip to Santa Cruz beach boardwalk. I’ll miss your shrimp salsa for sure! Grams, You never missed a Xmas even if money was short - you always made sure your children/grandchildren had something. I’ll forver cherish my scarves knitted by your delicate hands and I still wear them. One thing  people may not know is that You were a hard worker! DHS is where you would eventually retire and then I soon stepped in after you. Boy were those big shoes to fill. You were the best claims examiner they had! I’ll always remember the cactus 🌵 you sliced to heal my scrape after falling outside on 6th street! The rides to great grandmas house for church. Your grouchy dog Amigo who hated me lol Our talks about life and why it’s important to love.  I’m so happy to have been a part of your spirits journey on earth. No regrets, just positivity. Kudos to you grams for staying on the right path and Fulfilling your life’s purpose. We all have a job to do here. Thank you for encouraging others to always keep GOD, LOVE & LIGHT at the forefront.

Granddaughter ❤️🙏🏻🙇🏻‍♀️

My memory of Delores will always be how comforting and loving she was.  She treated and loved me like a granddaughter and I will always be thankful for the kindness she showed me💗 

My memory of Delores was her soft spokeness.  In her quietness one could see and feel the love she had for her family.   Proverbs 31:28 “Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.”  Praying and sending our Love to all the family.

When I was young my family went through some very hard times… Delores opened her home to me and allowed me to stay with them and was that parent to me during that time...I had nowhere to go and she was there for me I’ve never forgotten that! I appreciate the love the Ojeda’s have  always showed to me. I love this family so very much! 

It was truly a honor and a blessing to take care of Sister Delores, she was a beautiful Christian lady, I loved her very much and I will miss Delores.  I'll continue to pray for the family, Sister Delores was very special to me!!!

The memories of my friend 👑Delores are all ones to keep me moving forward in this world with continued faith and trust when life is not what was imagined, that God is with me and listening💝Her attitude was one to be emulated💗Her conversations are ones to remember always and I always looked forward to them👸🏻She is my sister in law's mom and was also a very good friend to my mom.👭 They are a wonderful example on how in laws should be💖 Until we meet again Delores you left a big hole in my world💔 thank you so much for your friendship and prayers 🌷

There are no words good enough to explain the life of Dolores and the spirit she radiated to everyone that came close to her.

There are very few that have affected my heart when I heard the news of her passing.

A life that portrayed forgiveness, kindness, love, respect and appreciation to others.

A great loss for us on earth but a great addition to the New Jerusalem.
