Sorry to drag this post from the dead, but Dolores would be very shocked to see her death notice preceding her by several years. She is very much alive and well. I found this post because I was doing some research on her in her movie role in Dr. No.

 

Here is a picture I took of her and her husband Sanford the day she was given an award by a local opera group.
