Please share a memory of Dolores to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Dolores (Siciliano) Romero, 48, went home to be with the Lord on April 23, 2020. Dolores was born to the late Augustine Siciliano and Florence and Paul Pope. She was a Vineland resident until 1998 when she married her husband Richard Romero and moved to Millville. She attended Vineland schools and graduated from Vineland High School in 1991.
Dee's love for roller skating introduced her to her husband of 22 years. They met in their early teens at the Vineland Skating rink on Delsea Drive in Vineland where they shuffle skated to "Spring Love" by Stevie B. Dee and her husband shared many interests, she loved to travel especially cruising, watching baseball and going to wineries, but what she loved most was spending time with her family.
Before her valiant battle with Cancer she worked as a Home Health Aide for Cumberland County Homemakers in Millville for almost 20 years. In her most recent years she enjoyed watching her favorite shows, The Have and the Have Nots, Empire, If loving you is wrong, American Idol and The Masked Singer.
Dee was a loving and compassionate woman. She especially enjoyed her family's Holiday dinners before her illness. She often enjoyed date nights with her husband. They were looking forward to seeing Carlos Santana again this August. One of her favorite past times was getting mani/pedi's with her daughters. She looked forward to her midnight snacks and talks with her son, where they talked about how much she enjoyed being a Nonna to his daughter.
