It’s with a mourning heart that we announce the passing of Dolores this April 28, 2023, at night. Queen Esther has embarked on her next chapter in life after being gracefully comforted during her last few days at the hospital and being loved by her family and friends. We are grateful for the time we share life with her, and how she taught us to lead life with courage, principles, and love for each other. May she enjoy every second of her new life, may we all honor her legacy and memories with our actions, may her memory be our blessing.

" Peace, my heart, let the time for the parting be sweet. Let it not be a death but completeness. Let love to melt into memory and pain into songs. Let the flight through the sky end in the folding of the wings over the nest. Let the last touch of your hands be gentle like the flower of the night. Stand still, O Beautiful End, for a moment, and say your last words in silence. I bow to you and hold up my lamp to light you on your way." Rabindranath Tagore
