Dolly will be remembered by family and friends for her love of doing ceramics, gambling for fun, shopping, and traveling to New York City for theater events. Above all, her most cherished times, were with Joel on many cruises they made together over several years.

Dolly worked for over 30 years as an office manager for an insurance firm.
