  • We are so sorry to hear about Dolci. Dolci was such a positive woman and added a "spark" a 'light' to my Mom's life and quickly became a true friend. Dolci was a wonderful, kind woman with a fantastic sense of humour and so easy to be around. I always enjoyed hearing about Dolci and my Mom's outings. The two ladies had so much fun together attending dinners, concerts, movie-nights and hanging out and being silly. There were many road trips for these two ladies, including a 3 week trip across the USA/Canada and then came the trip of a lifetime to Asia. Dolci had a remarkable way with people, and I will miss hearing all the stories of these two ladies' adventures. She will truly be missed and my deepest sympathy to all of her family. - Posted by: Sandi Taylor (Vicky Low's daughter) on: Feb 26, 2018
