Obituary

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Delores Alcazar, a beloved wife, mother, educator and inspiration to many. She departed this life on December 12, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love, wisdom, and dedication.

Born on September 21, 1946, Dolores devoted over 30 years to teaching in public schools, where she touched countless lives as a revered High School Spanish teacher. Her passion for language and culture was infectious, and she was known for her ability to inspire students to pursue their dreams and embrace the beauty of learning.

Dolores was married for 59 years to her devoted husband, Armando Alcazar. Together, they built a life filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support, setting an example of a strong and enduring partnership.

Outside of the classroom, Delores was a loving and devoted mother to her three children: Melody, Aamanda, and Andrew. Her children were her pride and joy, and she instilled in them the values of kindness, perseverance, and compassion. They will forever cherish the memories of her unwavering support and boundless love.

Dolores’ impact extended beyond her family and classroom. She was a beacon of light in the community, known for her kindness, generosity, and warm spirit. Her legacy will live on in the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing her.

A family, private celebration of her life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family request donations be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital at https://www.stjude.org/donate .
