Obituary of Delores M. Nelson

October 12, 1946 - April 26, 2012 Delores Marie Rocco Nelson ("Dee"), 65, passed away unexpectedly early Thursday  morning.  She had been battling congestive heart failure and lupus for many years. Dee is survived by her 6 children; 2 step-children; 6 grandchildren; 4 step-grandchildren; one niece; one great-nephew; her sister and her St. Bernard Sophia. Dee loved cooking and baking, home decorating, religious studies, playing cards and spending time with her family.  Delores was an exceptionally generous, thoughtful, honest and loving woman who attracted the friendship of the many who she crossed paths with. She always put the needs of others before her own, and refused to give up until she felt she had done all she was capable of doing. Mom, we cherish you dearly and you will always live on in our hearts and thoughts.  You will never be forgotten. A special thanks to the Brimfield EMS and Hospice of VNS. A private burial will take place at Restland Cemetery in Brimfield.  In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Redmon Funeral Home.
