Born and raised in West Newton, PA, the daughter of the late Peter and Helen (Miselnicky) Romonosky, lived in Monongahela, PA, Mattapoisett, MA and Cortland, OH before retiring in Hendersonville, NC.
Dolly was most happy when spending time with family, especially her two grandchildren who were her world. “My son had a daughter and my daughter had a son 5 weeks apart” was a phrase that you would eventually hear if you spent any time with Dolly. She was a die-hard Pittsburgh Steelers fan, loved Disney, Hilton Head Island, crocheting, casino trips and traveling with her ClayMates group.
Known to her co-workers as “Dee”, Dolly worked as an Administrative Assistant at Land of Sky in Ashville, NC. She loved them like family and enjoyed telling her story of working as a temp for over 15 years. She also previously worked for Little Tikes Corporate Headquarters in Hudson, OH and Ocean Spray Administrative Offices in Middleboro, MA.
She was also preceded in death by her husband Barry Hanak in May of 2023. Surviving are her daughter Jennifer Carling and husband Matthew Smith of New Bedford, MA; Son Jeffrey Hanak and wife Michelle of Charlotte, NC; two grandchildren, Joshua Carling of New Bedford, MA and Alexis Hanak of Manhattan, NY; Sisters, Barbara Bacha and husband Joe of West Newton, PA; brother Edward Romonosky and wife Rose of Pontiac, IL and Rosemary Musingo of West Newton, PA. Dolly is also survived by a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends that were near and dear to her heart.
