Our beautiful mother Dolores Sales left this earth on Dec. 26, 2020, at Los Alamitos Medical Center in Los Alamitos, California. Dolores was born June 27, 1940, in Alton, Illinois. She was raised in Wilmington, California, by her parents Jacob and Margaret Sales. She raised five children and was a loving mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She had two more children for whom she lovingly placed for adoption. Later, she was fortunate to have them both come into her life. She was hardworking and dedicated to serving her community as a security guard for over 20 years. She lived out her retirement years in the lovely Leisure World community of Seal Beach, California. She was very passionate about doing genealogy and learning about her ancestors. She enjoyed oldies music, live entertainment and Chinese food, and she loved a good game of 500 Rummy. Most of all, she loved her family. She will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts. – John Moya, son
