Deloris worked as a medical technician, but her true passion was working as a professional clown. She held the most number of appearances, as well as many other awards for her volunteer work as a clown. Deloris was a member of the Aqua-Jesters, as well as the founder of the Clown Club when she was living in Deerwood, Minnesota. She was also an avid quilter with community education, was passionate about helping those with medical needs, and spending time socializing with all her friends. Deloris will be dearly missed by those that knew her. Blessed be her memory.
