Dolores Rose (Dobransky) Lindenbaum, 92, of Canton, passed away peacefully at home April 12, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born Aug. 23, 1933, Dolores was the daughter of the late Viola (Johnson) Dobransky and Delmar Davis, and the stepdaughter of George Dobransky. As the oldest of eight siblings, she naturally took on a caring and guiding role that she carried throughout her life.

On July 4, 1952, she married the love of her life, William “Bud” Lindenbaum Jr. Together they built a life rooted in family and unwavering devotion.

Dolores was preceded in death by her parents; her beloved husband, William; her stepfather, George Dobransky; her sisters, Virginia Capper, Francis Stull and Carol Seevers; her brother, George Dobransky; and her son-in-law, John Zwick.

She is lovingly survived by her children, Christina Zwick, Bob (Denise) Lindenbaum, Bill (Chris) Lindenbaum and Tim Lindenbaum; grandchildren, Jason (LeAnn) Lindenbaum, Jeremy (Vicki) Lindenbaum, John Zwick, Bryan (Amber) Zwick, Leah (Rick) Conner, Lindsey (Brandt) Smith, Ethan (Cole) Lindenbaum, Ryan Lindenbaum and Wyatte Lindenbaum; a large and loving legacy of great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren; and her siblings, Phillip Dobransky, Margaret Price, Walter “Butch” Dobransky and Christine Andrews.

Dolores lived a life of service, faith and kindness. She was deeply devoted to her church family, where she was actively involved in countless efforts, from teaching Bible classes, singing in the choir, making quilts for shut-ins and preparing food baskets for the needy to organizing projects, baking and helping maintain the church offices. She found great joy in serving others through Habitat for Humanity and was always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

Professionally, Dolores worked for many years as a secretary at Mercy School of Nursing and at Doctor’s Hospital in the social services department, where she was known for her dedication and warm spirit.

At home, Dolores’s greatest joy was her family. She loved them deeply and cherished every moment spent together. She also had a passion for gardening. Her hands were rarely still, whether planting flowers, pulling weeds or simply enjoying the beauty she created. Her garden was a reflection of her life: nurtured with care, patience and love.

Dolores was a lifetime caretaker in every sense of the word. Whether tending to her family, supporting her church or helping her dear friend Jim, she gave of herself freely and lovingly, always putting others before herself.

Funeral services were held Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at Peace Lutheran Church, 3828 Cleveland Ave. SW, Canton.

Visitation took place from 10 to 11 a.m., followed by the funeral service at 11 a.m., officiated by Pastor Jeff Goggins.

Interment followed at North Lawn Cemetery.

Donations may be made to Peace Lutheran Church in her memory.
