Delores Boyette
Delores Tannery Boyette (Mam-Ma) passed away on Monday, March 26, 2018, at 90 years old. Only a few hours after her sister, Dorothy. Delores was born in San Augustine, Texas, to Clifton Wilford “C.W.” and Nannie Mae Meador Tannery on January 10, 1928.

“Mam-Ma” and Pap-Pa were proud to have raised all four of their sons in South Park where they lived for forty-seven years before moving to Bevil Oaks; where she resided until Hurricane Harvey took her home in 2017. Mam-Ma was always up to play a game and loved to tell stories of the family history to anyone who would listen!

I miss Delores so much. We had so msny good conversations both in her home and st the hospital. I know it is s glorious day got her to fly home, but sad for those of us left. She loved her family and her pictures of their gatherings. We laughed about all those bears she had collected and I teased her after Harvey that I guess all those bears were just floating everywhere!! And we laughoed about that but it was sad at her age to lose her home again. Now safely with our Lord, those worries are gone. Love to her sons and families. She was a special lady to me and I miss her .

We fell in love with Mam-ma the first time we met her. She was such an angel. Now, heaven has gained that angel. We will miss her but are so thankful for the memories we made with her. RIP Mam-ma Boyette.

Ms. Boyette held a special place in my heart. I enjoyed her company so very much. My heart is heavy, but I know we will meet again. My prayers go out to all of you during this time. She was so special to many and always talking about her family she loved so very much. God bless you all.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family through this difficult time. Although I never met your grandmother she sounds like we would have enjoyed each other's company.
