    Dolores spent her childhood on the farm with her mom, dad, and siblings. Ranging from Freedom to Skunk Hill to Five Corners. On April 12, 1953, she met the love of her life, Ronald Nussbaum at the Cinderella Ballroom. It was love at first sight! They got married on September 1, 1955. It didn’t take long for their first son to be born and then they had a family of 11 with 9 kids. Dolores loved her family. She also loved to be in her beautiful garden. She grew vegetables and fruits, along with canning and freezing all that she grew. She always made sure there was food on the table. She was also a fan of a good puzzle and the Green Bay Packers.

    Dolores and Ronald loved to travel. They have visited all 48 continental states. They also loved to dance and go on a nice Sunday drive for an ice cream cone. They also loved to spend time with their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
