In 1979 she started doing daycare and did that until 1986.

In August of 1987 she went to work as a waitress for Terry's Café and later J & M where she worked until retiring in February of 2008.

She loved all the people that she was able to wait on and make friends with.

She loved quilting, crocheting, refinishing antique furniture, arts, crafts and loved ALL the rummage sales she could attend.

Deloris was very proud that she was a two time cancer survivor. The family wants to say a huge thank you for the exceptional care Deloris received at The Neighborhoods. Deloris is survived by three sons: Rodney (Shellie) Olson; Randy (Sandy) Olson; and Rick Olson, all of Lake Preston, SD; one daughter Renae Olson, Lake Preston, SD; one grandson, Ross Olson, Sioux Falls, SD.
