What a great Lady! She was like he neighborhood mom. How did she always know where Kevin and Dahl were, even though they thought she didn’t know. #1 fan of the YM 4th Stormin Mormon softball team. We celebrate a wonderful life. Rest in peace Sis. Talbot.

I’m so sorry for the loss of your dear wife and mother-Delores. From the time I first met her, I have always felt that she was a GREAT LADY and a perfect example to everyone. She knew and lived the Gospel in all that she did here on earth. I will always remember how much my husband-Arthur D. Williams-loved his dear school bus riding friend and all the good times they shared living up Deep Creek. I’m sure they will be enjoying seeing one another once again in heaven. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. If you get a minute I’d really like to get your new address, I didn’t know that you had moved away from Blackfoot-you could just email it to me.

I knew Delores for many years as a patient at Simpson Dental Offices in Blackfoot. She was just a beautiful lady inside and out. Over the 39 years I worked there I think her and Lorin were some of my favorite patients. I know she will be missed by all who knew and loved her.

I worked with Delores at the fair for several years selling tickets to the rodeo and night shows. What great memories to think back on. She was fun to work with and taught me a lot. I remember that one year toward the end of the fair Norma Howell brought us a treat of some fresh fruit. It tasted so good to us after a week of fair food!
She was a great lady. We hope that your faith and happy memories will comfort you during this difficult time.
