Rest in Peace Dear Mrs. Bolam. A wonderful neighbor for many years! Remember her vitality and love for life. Always friendly to my brothers and me.

I remember Dolores very well. She was quite a ‘ball of fire’ and always lots of fun. Am sure she will be missed by many. Gloria, you and I went to school together.

Just a few words from a distant cousin. Dolores was truly one of those people who 'lit up a room' with her personality. My grandmother, Hazel Springer, was Dolores' aunt. Dolores was known in our family as the historian of the Anderson family and she gave us great insight into the family we came from. Dolores said her grandmother, my great grandmother, remembered the waves coming up over the ship when her family crossed the Atlantic to America in 1872 and made their way out west. Such strong people we came from! Our family has two copies of her book Trilogy of Valor. She was very close to our grandmother and I think there was a happy reunion at Heaven's gate for all the Beaver County Andersons.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
