On November 18, 1951 she was united in marriage to Edward “Eddie” Harold Bossert in Firesteel. To this union, eight children were born.

Dolores and Eddie moved to Green Valley, Minnesota in 1957, where they resided the rest of their married life. After Eddie passed away in November 2000, Dolores continued to live in their home until entering Minneota Manor.
