Delores Mae Richter, the youngest child of Paul and Mary Richter, was born on December 22, 1934, in Granville, Iowa. She was baptized and confirmed into the Lutheran Church and throughout her life remained a devoted member. While growing up in Paulina, Iowa she attended elementary school at St. John Lutheran School and later graduated from Paulina High School.
She met Harry Benner while she was working at Lange’s Café in Paulina, Iowa. They married on June 10, 1953. They became an instant family as Harry had 3 children; Jeff Kummerfeldt of Germantown, IA; Sally Frampton of Modesto, CA; and Jerry Benner of British Columbia, Canada. The following year, Delores and Harry welcomed Alan Benner of Henderson, NV who was the first of their three children together, he was then followed by Lynn Bieker of Las Vegas, NV; and eventually their youngest, Cindy Gibbs of Benson, AZ. Delores and Harry had been married for 61 years before Harry passed in 2015.
Throughout their marriage they lived in many states before making Nevada their final home. While in NV, Delores and Harry lived in Indian Springs, Las Vegas, and their last home in Henderson. Delores gracefully left to be with her Savior on June 27, 2023. She was 88 years old and was sure that her husband Harry, and her grandson, Christopher Bieker would help welcome her into Heaven.
