Dolores Wolf passed away peacefully in Dallas, Texas on March 28, 2021. She was 88 years old. Dolores was born in Bangs, Texas to T.A. Watts and Ruby Watts on July 16, 1932. She was predeceased by her loving husband of 51 years, Vernon Wolf, in 2009.
Family was paramount to Dolores. She is survived by two daughters, Rhesa Lang of Harper and Roxie Shorter of Dallas; and one son, Troyce Wolf of Dallas. She is also survived by her seven wonderful grandchildren.
Dolores graduated in 1954 from Abilene Christian University with a Bachelor of Science degree and then obtained her Master’s degree from Hardin-Simmons University. She loved teaching and taught school for over 20 years with the Borden County I.S.D. in Gail, Texas, where she had a positive impact on many young lives.
Dolores truly enjoyed living in Borden County, residing there from 1958 until moving to a retirement home in Dallas in 2017. Even in her eighties, she still enjoyed driving around to look at the cattle and cotton. In the evenings, she loved watching the quail come to feed outside her yard. She was a devoted Christian and a member of the Vincent Baptist Church for over 60 years. She lived a wonderful full life marked with a giving heart and a compassionate soul. She was loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure.
Graveside services are scheduled for 10:00am, Thursday, April 1, 2021 at Trinity Memorial Park in Big Spring, Texas.
