Dolores Hall Markus

Dolores Hall Markus, of Liberty, formerly of Boyle County, died Friday, July 5, 2024, at Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital in Somerset.  She was 85.

She was born October 31, 1938, in Detroit, Michigan to the late Warren and Edna Coy Hall.

Dolores was a retired seamstress with Ephraim McDowell Regional Medical Center and the Goodall Company’s Palm Beach Suit plant. But most of all, she will be remembered as a wonderful caregiver, as she took great care of people. Dolores never met a stranger.

Dolores was a member of First Baptist Church of Liberty.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brothers, Bobby, Walter, William, Ralph and Earl Hall; and her sisters, Jeanette Lewis and Betty Greene.

She is survived by her husband, Steve Markus of Liberty, whom she wed on September 15, 2007; her son, Tim Simpson of Perryville; her daughter, Malinda Raines (and Jeff) of Danville; her stepson, John Markus (and Sandy) of Glasgow; her stepdaughter, Sherry Azelton (and Kerry) of California; eight grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Graveside services will be 12:30PM Tuesday, July 9, 2024, at Camp Nelson National Cemetery in Nicholasville.  Bro. Jimmy Brown will officiate.  In memory of Dolores, memorial contributions may go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
