Frances Dollar Obituary

Frances Dollar, Godly wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, mother-in-law and friend to many, quietly and peacefully slipped from the bonds and pain of this life into the waiting arms of the Savior on June 30, 2005. She was born January 23, 1916 in Gibson County Tennessee to Calvin and Lilley Green. One of nine children, she is survived by one brother, Charles Green of Milan, Tennessee. She was preceded in death by her husband, William Dollar in 1977 and by brothers: Fred, Obe, Marshall, Tom, and Wallace; and sisters: Ida and Ressie. She is survived by her daughter, Mary and Bill Vollrath; and son, Sam and Lynn Dollar, both of Colorado Springs. She has four grandchildren: Randy Vollrath, Chris and Crystal Vollrath, Shilah and Frank Dennis and Josh Dollar; and six great-grandchildren: Kimber Lee Vollrath, Courtney Vollrath, Scott Vollrath, Dustin Vollrath, Rachelle Vollrath and Ryan Vollrath; and numerous nieces and nephews. Frances' first love was her family and being a homemaker. For many years she was employed bu Current, Inc. She had the distinction of being Miriam Loo's first employee when she first started Current in her home. Her strong faith carried her through many difficult times, always with a smile and an encouraging word for others. Her greatest talent was loving, helping and giving to others. Her family and friends are enriched by the heritage and memories she leaves us. We will miss her greatly but the lifetime of memories she gave us will carry us through the valleys. We rejoice that she has made the final journey into heaven where she longed to go. We had her for more years than we could have asked for, but have released her to God with the promise that we will join her. Goodbye, Mother, Mom, Grandma, Mamaw. We love you dearly. Instead of flowers, the family encourages you to make a generous donation to the wonderful Pikes Peak Hospice organization who help so many families during this time, 825 E.
