Dolores Ann Holme, 91

June 28, 2023

Dolores Ann Holme, 91, of Lancaster, PA and formerly of Detroit, MI, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, June 28, 2023. Born in Detroit, she was the daughter of the late Walter and Helen (Wickert) Rabe. She was married to her beloved husband, Charles “Chuck” A. Holme, prior to his passing in 2006.

Dolores will be affectionately remembered as the best-dressed and most stylish in the room. She loved having fun, laughing, and dancing and adored her beloved husband Chuck as her dancing partner. Dolores was a star in the eyes of all who knew her. She was also the quintessential homemaker who prioritized ensuring her house was clean, meals were cooked, and her children had everything they needed. She was happy to be the central figure in her children’s lives. Dolores was a devout Catholic and recently was a parishioner of St. John Neumann. In her later years, she took to making blankets for everyone in the family, and they will always remember her fondly when they see it at the end of their bed, and feel it keeping them warm and comfortable.

Dolores is survived by her four children: Gary Holme (Marleah), Julianna Cornack (Thomas), Jeffrey Holme (Diane), and Kelly Spitzley (Ray); two siblings: Robert Rabe (Michelle) and Judy Kler (Tom); twelve grandchildren: Rachael, Sarah, Natalie, Gabriella, Erin, Tyler, Nicole, Jeffrey, Jr., Ellen, Joe, Street, and Charlie; three great-grandchildren: Paxton, Leah, and Lacey. She was predeceased by her sister Patricia Garbarino.

A celebration of Dolores’ beautiful life will be held on Saturday, July 15, 2023 at 10 AM at St. Hugo of the Hills Parish, 2215 Opdyke Rd, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan 48304.

Jeff, Philip Farris here. Long ago and far away we were Managers at the RenCen. My condolences on the passing of your Mother. I remember being at a cocktail party at your parents house, your Mom was a gracious host and your father was great to engage in a conversation. Again, my sympathies. Philip R Farris

Delores was the star in the show of life. When she entered a room the spotlight went to her. Although I only met her a few times her imprint has a lasting effervescence.
