Her family, which included her sister, Beverly, moved to Napa, California when she was a small child. Dolores attended school in Napa, graduating from Napa High School in 1943. She attended the College of Pacific (now UOP) for a short time following high school. In 1944, she married Charles Bryden. They had three children, James (Jim), Nancy and John, all born and raised in Napa. Dolores was crippled with polio during the 1951 epidemic, but eventually recovered enough to become a devoted golfer. She was very proud of her two holes-in-one. After a divorce from her children's father, she met and married B.W. (Buz) Boisvert. They lived in Napa, Reno, Nevada and Penn Valley, California until moving to Roseville, California in 2005. She had continued to live in Roseville following Buz's death in 2007. She is survived by her daughter, Nancy Kraus (Joe) of Roseville and her son, John Bryden (Mary) of Napa and So.
