They were happily married for 49 years. Delores was a member of St. James United Methodist Church in Kansas City, Missouri. Delores had a phenomenal love of flowers which everyone knows and was always a showstopper! The array of colors was as broad as her love for all that she knew. She also loved cooking. As a matter of fact, at all at all of our family picnics we would fight over her bread pudding and peach cobbler! And the traditional Sunday dinners was the best. We don’t know what we would have done without her in our lives. She was the “Glue” for our family. She was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She especially loved her role as a wife. She had a vivacious personality and always made people around her laugh and smile. All the children at Happy Day Preschool craved her attention and loved her as well. She was preceded in death by her mother, Lillie Pitchlyn Allen; her father, Charles Allen; her sister, Gwendolyn; her brothers, Charles and Louis. Delores leaves to cherish her love her immediate family, Reginal Walker (eldest son); Therisa Delores Ross (daughter); and Frederick Stanley Ross (youngest son); sister, Sylvia Ann Wash of Kansas City, Kansas; a host of nieces, nephews, family and friends; along with many grandchildren whom will lean on our family at this difficult time.
