Dolores B. Crail, 82

Dolores B. (Powers) Crail, 82, wife of Robert “Bob” C. Crail, passed away on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at her home in Gilbertsville.

Born in Philadelphia, she was the daughter of the late Joseph and Bertha (Lucas) Powers.

Dolores loved fashion and was very enthusiastic about her career. She was always known as a very giving, and charitable person. From Den mother to Girl Scout Leader. While living in California she volunteered at the John Steinbeck House, a very rewarding experience she talks about to this day.

Dolores was a voracious reader, and enjoyed traveling, and listening to live music. She loved her dogs and cats and was an advocate for animal adoption.

One of the most joyful times of Dolores’s life was while living in California with her husband and her beloved mother. She cherished the time spent with her mom in Carmel being the ultimate tourist, shopping and dining with Clint Eastwood at his restaurant.

Surviving along with her husband, Bob of 63 years, is her daughter Lori, (Dante); son Robert Jr., (Maria); son Kenneth, (Deborah); son Kevin; (Michelle).

Grandchildren Christopher (Beth); Catherine (Matt); Kevin Jr.; Timothy; Cassandra; Brian; Sean; Evan.

Great grandchildren Weston James and Rowan Kate.

Beloved fur babies Lucy and Elvis.

Services will be held privately at the convenience of the family.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Goofy Foot Animal Rescue (https://www.goofyfootrescue.org/#/) in Dolores’ name.

I am so deeply sorry to learn of Mrs. Crail’s passing. While I’ve never met her, I can see the benefits of her grace through her daughter, and cannot imagine the hole that’s left in the lives of her family. I offer you my sincere condolences and loving kindness.

We're in shock and disbelieve. Please accept our deepest condolences on Dolores passing. Although she was reserved and quiet, it was always a delight to see her around the neighborhood, whether taking in the mail and stopping for a small talk, or occasionally walking Lucy. We will truly miss her presence.
With sympathy,
The de Leon Family
