Dolores V. Klein

Dolores V. Klein, 98, passed peacefully into the arms of the Lord on Saturday June 20, 2026, surrounded by her loving family.

Dolores was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend. Her faith was the cornerstone of her life. A lifelong Catholic, she faithfully served her parish as a sacristan and spiritual leader at Church of Saint Peter in St. Cloud MN. She was instrumental in helping establish the Legion of Mary within the parish and dedicated countless hours to serving her community through spiritual care for 23 years.

Dolores found joy in life’s simple blessings. She loved cooking for family and friends, spending time outdoors, following sports and creating cherished memories with those she loved most. Dancing was her absolute passion. Her warmth, kindness, and unwavering faith touched the lives of many and will continue to inspire all who knew her.

She now joins her beloved husband, Richard who preceded her in death after they shared 51 cherished years of marriage; her two sisters and six brothers; her son-in-law, Charles Hartley and her grandsons, Kevin and Bryndon.

Those left to cherish her memory are son, Orville Klein and wife Sally of Dixon California; daughters, Rebecca Hall and husband Bruce of Corcoran Minnesota; Marietta Wiles and husband Denny of Colleyville Texas; brother, Orville Spanier of Farming, Minnesota; grandchildren, Terese Wood and husband Matt of Dixon California, Eric Hall and wife Jaclyn of Champlin Minnesota, Ashley Lund and husband Eric of Maple Grove Minnesota, Brittini Wiles of Burleson Texas, Macaylla Wiles of Colleyville Texas and Marissa Wiles of Colleyville Texas; great-grandchildren, Madelynn, Lynus, Symon, Dextyr, Aiden, Mia, Sawyer, Eli, Talia, Dayton and Penelope.
