Dolores Horn

Dolores "Dee" Horn left this earth on May 15, 2024, at her home in Brimfield. She suffered from a head injury incurred during a fall, from which she did not recover. Dee was a devoted wife to her loving husband, Jerry, who preceded her in death in October 2014. She was a wonderful mother to her son, Kevin, who also preceded her in death in October 1976, and her daughter, Michelle Curtale, who survives. Dee was also preceded in death by her two sisters, Beverly Furlong and Brenda Calvert.

Dee is survived by her grandson Spencer (Megan) Curtale and great-grandchildren Lucy, Abigail, James, and Sarah. Dee loved all of the finer things in life. Fashion was one of her passions. She could recall in perfect detail what she was wearing to any significant event in her life! She was an incredible cook and loved making meals for her family. Dee believed a great wine should accompany every dinner. She loved getting together with family. Dee loved music, especially jazz. She will be dearly missed.

Dee was a faithful Lutheran parishioner. She and Jerry were very active in their church throughout the years. Her prayer life was strong, even in her last days. We will miss her terribly, but we know that she is once again united with the love of her life.

A memorial service will be held at the Brimfield Evangelical Free Church on Friday, May 31, 2024, at 11:00 AM, and a lunch will follow immediately.
