She enjoyed making crafts and jewelry, playing loteria, spending time with her siblings and visiting friends at Vita Daycare as well as taking part in events such as Cinco De Mayo Fiestas. Dora’s biggest pride and love, however, is the love she had for her all of her children and grandchildren, she spoke often of them to anyone who would listen. She treasured every moment she spent with each of them and at times traveled as far as Chicago and South Dakota to visit them. She will be missed by many.
