Dolores Petermeier was born Feb. 28, 1933, in St. Martin, Minnesota, to Peter and Thecla (Gertken) Noll. On Aug. 18, 1954, she married Delbert Petermeier at St. Martin Catholic Church in St. Martin. Dolores was a homemaker all her life. She enjoyed having people over for yummy meals, coffee, drinks and lots of laughter.       

Dolores loved being surrounded by her family, hosting anyone who showed up on her doorstep, playing piano, root beer floats, all furry and feathered creatures and without a doubt, Jesus. 

She was a member of St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Melrose.

In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred.
