Age 83 of Inver Grove Heights
Passed away peacefully at home on June 6, 2018. Dolores was born in St. Paul, and worked for 29 years as a medical underwriter for Securian (previously Minnesota Mutual). Mom was an avid reader who always had her nose in a book. She passed along this love to many, her children recalling being read to every night. Books were a frequent gift and her first job was as a librarian in the Carnegie Library (now the Riverview Branch Library of the Saint Paul Public Library) serving the West Side of Saint Paul. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 57 years, Jack and her parents, Gerald and Otellia. She is survived by her seven children, Jack (Kathryn), James (Raquel), Susan (Kurt) Koefod, Joe (Kathy), Lisa (Terry) Sauerer, Jeremy (Sue), and Andrew; 18 grandchildren; 15 great grandchildren; and brother, Gerald (Linda) Isaacs.
