Obituary

Dolores M Kelley, 85, of Fort Myers, FL passed away peacefully and surrounded by love after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s.

Dolores was predeceased by her husband of over 49 years, Scott J Kelley in 2022.

Born in Milford, MA to Dominic Paradiso and Lena (Pardova). Dolores was a graduate of Milford High School.

In her early years, Dolores was an executive secretary for the Milford Shoe Company. She attended electrolysis school in the beginning of 1970, in Quincy where she eventually met and married Scott.

They resided in South Shore, MA for over 30 years. During that time, Dolores became a Sales Associate for Filene’s Department Store and received many recognitions for her department and brand expertise. At the time of her retirement, she was the Personal Shopper for Macy’s located in Braintree.

Dolores and Scott moved to Punta Gorda Florida in 2007. They enjoyed SW Florida and the wonderful community of Seminole Lakes. Dolores enjoyed the many visits from her niece and family. We will always cherish those memories.

Dolores is survived by her sister, Gloria of Northbridge and many nieces and nephews.  Dolores was predeceased by her 9 siblings.

Auntie, we will miss you endlessly. These last few years have been tough for you. We are forever grateful for the loving staff at Brookdale The Colony Memory Care facility. She was treated with immense care, compassion and great respect.

Thank you for always being there to listen, laugh and make memories that I will hold in my heart forever. We will cherish the family holidays, the yearly trips to Florida, cruises, Aruba trips and our daily phone calls. Love you always xo Sandy, Rob, Gabe and Robert

A private memorial service will be held in MA at a later date.
