Dolores loved her church, she had many roles at the church, such as deacon, organist, artist and many volunteering events. Her faith and family were very dear to her heart. Dolores worked at Alcoa as a receptionist in the downtown Pittsburgh office until she and Martin began a family. Dolores loved camping, canoeing, spending time with her neighbors around a campfire in Lower Burrell, drawing, arts and crafts at the church, holidays with family, making greeting cards, watching all sports especially the Pittsburgh Steelers, her dogs (including grand dogs) and baking pies.

The family would like to thank the staff throughout the Concordia system for their guidance, care and friendship they showed both of their parents. Dolores had a quiet demeanor, known to all as being a sweet, gentle, quiet, and thoughtful woman, but also known to those close to her as being strong, creative, funny and having a fierce sweet tooth. Dolores is preceded in death by her husband Martin F Ide, parents Henry and Elizbeth Gaskin and brother George Gaskin.
