Delores L. Conrad
October 15, 1929 - August 2, 2014

Delores L. Conrad, age 84, of Colo, Iowa, died Saturday, August 2, 2014, at State Center Nursing & Rehab Center where she made her home for the past three years.

Born October 15, 1929, in Iowa Falls, Iowa, Delores was one of 13 children born to Jake and Tena (Meyer) Karsjens. She spent most of her life in the Iowa Falls area and married the love of her life, Paul Conrad, on May 8, 1951, in LeGrand, Iowa. The couple made their home in Colo.

Dolores retired from Ames Laundry in 1978 due to health reasons. She loved spending time with family, friends and neighbors, and also enjoyed plastic crafts when her hands permitted.

Survivors include her children, Paul (Denise) Conrad of Colo, and Sharon (Keith Johnson) Conrad of Aredale; three grandchildren, Matt (Tiffany) Conrad of Colo, Paul (Annie Ostwald) Conrad, of Colo, and Tiffany (Darren) Geil of Huxley; a great-grandson, Bryon Babino; and two precious great-granddaughters, Alexa Conrad and Amelia Geil.

She was preceded in death by her husband Paul in 1981; her parents; and all her siblings.

Ryan Funeral Home of Nevada has been entrusted with the care of Delores and her family. The family would like to thank State Center Nursing and Rehab and Care Initiatives Hospice for the precious care of their loved one.
