Dollie enjoyed making pies for holiday meals. Her specialty and a family favorite, was her applesauce pies. She also loved making quilts and made many beautiful ones for her family. Other hobbies were growing flowers, swimming in her pool, camping out West, and doing her “acrobats”. But her greatest love was spoiling her grandkids.
