Dolores was born in Chicago in 1924 to Frank Detrick and Theresa Farr, where she spent many years growing up with her grandmother Anna Ewald.  She had 2 brothers: Charles and Ken Farr and she attended/graduated from Muskegon Heights High School in 1942 where she met and married Lt.Col. Robert Williams in Chicago in 1944. He flew in 3 wars and Dolores traveled extensively as an Air Force wife from Hawaii to Bermuda. They changed residences over 30 times in their 47-year marriage until he passed in 1990. She thoroughly enjoyed her many years of a modeling career. They enjoyed attending many military and church social events and functions. She loved animals and had such great love for her several German Shepherds and later on,  Poodles, that she had throughout her life. She was a member of Social Concerns at St. Cecilia's church for 22 years. She was also a hostess for the Beaverton Women's Aglow for 10 years. She loves Jesus, she always saw the positive in everything and everyone and was loved dearly by all who knew her. Her favorite saying was: "The best is yet to come".  That saying has now come to pass for her.

She is survived by 3 children: Robert Williams Jr. (wife Mary Williams), Debbie Weaver (husband Ray Weaver) and Jeff Williams (wife Julie Williams).
