Delores Nadine Martin, 100, of Whitewater passed away peacefully on February 14, 2025.

Delores was born in Joliet, Illinois on April 17, 1924. She loved her job working in the nursery at St. Joseph’s Hospital. After retirement she moved to Whitewater to be closer to her family.

Great-Grandma was cherished by her family. To her nieces and nephews, she was Aunt Dee and was beloved for her family gatherings every Easter.

Delores is survived by her two daughters: Debra Lawler of Whitewater and Joyce (Russell) Milbauer of Dousman; grandchildren: Eric (Sophie) Lawler, Keith (Martha) Lawler, Christopher (Jessica) Fry, Cheryl Milbauer, and Clayton Adams; great-grandchildren: Madeleine, Zachary, Sebastian, Daniela, Benjamin, and Dustin.

She is preceded in death by her dear sisters Helen and Betty, the mothers of the aforementioned nieces and nephews.

Delores was a cancer survivor so any donations to cancer research would be appreciated.

Thank you to the professional response of the City of Whitewater’s Police and Fire/EMS on a cold, snowy night.
