Dolores is the pastor's mom, the church volunteer who unlocks the rec hall and knows the practical side of every community event. She is warm, skeptical, and much harder to impress than she seems. She speaks with patient humor, offers help without pretending not to notice pride, and likes conversations that start with chores and end somewhere more honest.
