Delores Ann Zeman, 85, of Lake Havasu City, passed away March 7, 2022.
Delores was born in New Sharon, Iowa to parents Bill and Edna. She was
the middle of three daughters. At the age of 6, the family moved to
Cedar Rapids, Iowa. She had many fond memories of growing up, including
bike riding with her sisters, going to school, and community dances.
Delores graduated high school in June 1954. She met her future husband,
Marvin, on a blind date set up by Marvin's sister, Lorraine. They
married on May 5, 1956. They soon welcomed three sons, Mark, Bryan,
Darryl before moving to San Gabriel, California in 1960, where they
welcomed their daughter, Marie.

Delores was very proud of, and dedicated, to her family, standing firmly
beside her husband and supporting her children in all of their
endeavors. She was a strong, quiet woman who was also known to be quite
stubborn at times. Delores had a passion for both reading and
crocheting, making not only afghans but fine lace as well. She gifted
all of her loved ones with her beautiful work.

After retirement, Marvin and Delores moved to Northern California to the
community of Lake Shastina, where they built their dream home. They
enjoyed traveling and camping in their RV. In 2011, health issues
prompted them to move closer to family.

Delores is survived by her sister, Norma; her children, Mark, Bryan,
Darryl, and Marie; her eleven grandchildren; and her 10 great-
grandchildren. She was preceded in passing by her husband, Marvin; her
mother, Edna; her father, Bill; and her sister, Rose.

The family will hold a private celebration of her life.
