Dolores T. Dufort (Duphily) 71, of Attleboro, MA., passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Saturday, September 21, 2024 at Sturdy Memorial Hospital. She was the beloved wife of the late James “Jim” F. Dufort.
Born in Attleboro, Ma., on November 3, 1952, she was the daughter of the late Robert H. and Doris T. (Vaudrain) Duphily.
Dolores was a devoted mother whose greatest joy in life was her family. She always put her children first, nurturing them with unwavering love, patience, and care. This only grew stronger when she became a grandmother and could continue to spread her love. There was nothing she loved more than spending time with and playing with her grandchildren. She enjoyed working with her family in the family business, Dufort Landscaping. Dolores and Jim always had a large garden and shared what they grew. Dolores, an excellent cook, was well known for her Venus de Milo soup and her delicious jams. If you ever got a can, you knew you were lucky. Dolores lived a full life and enjoyed spending time with loved ones. Whether she with was traveling overseas with her husband to some of her favorite places like Medugorje, France, Italy and Greece, or going out for treasured “Sister Days”, she was always up for an adventure.
She is survived by her loving sons, Aaron Dufort and his wife Chrysti of East Freetown, MA, and Eric Dufort and his wife Bethany of Berkley, MA. She is also survived by her cherished grandchildren, Jacob, Nicholas, Elliana, Lillian, Christopher and Coleson Dufort and devoted siblings, Claire Campbell, Diane Razee, twin sister Doris Conroy, Jeannette Duphily, Robert Duphily, Donald Duphily, Theresa Kruja and Joseph Duphily.
