Maria Dolores (Dolly) McCormick

Maria Dolores (Dolly) McCormick died Sunday morning 11/3/13 at Country Manor foster home in Eugene of age related causes. She’d been in failing health in recent years.

She was born in Harlowton, MT on May 31, 1929 to Gustav and Emily Girnus, the 7th and youngest child. She was raised in Chewelah and Spokane WA where she worked various jobs until she met and married James Michael McCormick in 1955, he passed in 2001.

Their son, Timothy Michael, was born in 1964, followed by Terrance James in 1965. The McCormick’s came to Eugene in 1968. Dolly was a homemaker until the boys started school and then she had part time jobs as a bookkeeper, receptionist, and as a demonstrator for Oster appliances.

She enjoyed motorhome travel with Jim to visit relatives, friends and places of interest to them both. Dolly loved her cats and everyone else’s pets and liked to take good care of them.

She is survived by her sons, Tim of Santa Monica, CA., and Terry of Eugene, plus several nieces, nephews, and extended family. No services are planned in Eugene. Her cremains will be interred in Spokane beside her husband, Jim, at a later date. Remembrances may be made in her name to the Greenhill Humane Society.

~Eugene Register-Guard, November 10, 2013
~Note: her husband Jim, was from Waukon, Allamakee co. Iowa
