On 28 April 2018, Delores “Dee” Ashcraft passed peacefully at home surrounded by beloved daughters, in St. Charles, Missouri. Born 9 February 1932 in Kentucky, Dee now joins her husband of 66 years and the love of her life, F. M. “Ez” Ashcraft, in the eternal life-after-life.

Known as “St. Delores, the Good”, she opened her heart to all she met, and never said an unkind thing about anyone. Always active, she attended Curves into her eighties, and was an inspiration to always try to do your best.

Dee was a loyal Cardinal fan and counted on Yadi to come through for the win!

Surviving Dee are Karen Ashcraft Hoffmann (Mike West), Frankie Richardson (Max), Terry Vernon (Ritch), and Deborah Clarkson (Dan). She was blessed with 6 grandchildren (Katy, Katie, Ashley, Kortney, Lorie and Blake) and 5 great-grandchildren (Noah, Gracie, Millie, Gus and Elouise).

Her memorial service will be held 15 June 2018 at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery, where she will be laid to rest with her husband on the anniversary of their wedding day.
