Dolores Ann Curley, lovingly known as Sis, passed away Sunday, July 28th 2019 at the Jefferson Health Hospice in Warminster. She was 76 years old and died surrounded by her family from complication after her battle with lung cancer.
She was born in Norristown, PA on January 10,1943 to Joseph and Agnes Polikowski. She is survived by her beloved husband William T. Curley and by her Sister Karen Worthington (Jim) and preceded in death by her sister Jerry Kovacic (Steve).
Her children, John Mellon, Lisa Abdelsalam (Mohamed), Linda Robins (Kevin), Neal Curley (Karen) and Joanne Curley, will dearly miss her. She is preceded in death by her nieces, Lisa and Lori Cinaglia and survived by her nephew Nicki LaMacclia (Monica), as well as her 8 grandchildren and her 5-year-old grand niece Sophia who will always remember their last tea party together.
She was retired from the State Hospital in Norristown and happily spent most of her time with her family that meant everything to her. She loved animals and will be happy to be reunited with her dog Squiffy that she took absolutely everywhere with her. Sis was truly one of a kind and Saturdays at Karen’s will never be the same.

Aunt Sis was a very thoughtful person and very family oriented. She was a very important person in her sister Karen’s life. She was always there for her. Her and Uncle Bill were always there for us. We will miss Aunt Sis and she will always be in our memories. I wish this would have never happened but that’s the way life is. God bless you Aunt Sis and until we meet again, we love you. Nick and Monica.
I never met Sis but felt I knew her because of her sister Karen. My husband and I prayed for her and Karen regularly, as did our Life Group of dear, wonderful ladies. Sis became a member of our group in spirit and she’ll be another dear soul I will be delighted to meet in heaven. I send my condolences to all who will miss her, but oh the glorious sights she is seeing! May our dear Lord surround you with peace and joy knowing you will see her again. This time never in pain nor tears. God bless. Lylia Hoehl, friend of Karen.
Sis was one of those rare individuals who was loved by all. She was accepting and nonjudgmental of everyone. When I went to a party and she was there I couldn’t wait to talk to her. She was funny too. She almost made Misty come to life with all her anecdotes. Most of all Sis loved Bill. I remember talking to her when he was away and she said “I can’t wait til he gets home” and she meant it. Bill was her pillar of strength always. I am so glad Sis was in
My life -even if it wasn’t long enough. I will miss her terribly.
