I’m sure going miss my friend Dee. She was like a second mom to me . We talked often . When I would go cut her hair we talked about her life and how much she loved her family. She told me she took up cosmetology . We had so much in common . Dolores was a special lady that was loved by many . She was an awesome cook . She amazed me how she cooked still in her later years . I want to thank her family for sharing her with me . I was so blessed having her in my life. Thinking of all her loved ones and sending hugs .
