North Lima………A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11am, Monday, June 3rd, at St. Jude Catholic Church in Columbiana with Rev. Fr. Christopher Cicero officiating for Dolores "Dee" Primavera, 75, who passed away Thursday, May 30th, in Select Specialty Hospital at St. Elizabeth Medical Center, Boardman Campus.

Dolores was born July 7, 1943, in Youngstown, the daughter of Michael and Elizabeth Skvarka Costello.

She was a 1961 graduate of Cardinal Mooney High School and went on to work for Agler Insurance Agency before her marriage to Gene Primavera on Oct. 25th, 1969.

She was a member of the church and the St. Jude's Women Guild. Dolores and Gene were Perpetually Professed on Sept. 9, 1999, in the Holy Family Institute, where she helped with office work at the St. Paul Monastery.

Dolores enjoyed baking, cooking, and spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. Every year, she looked forward to her annual pilgrimage to Carey, Ohio, to visit Our Lady of Consolation with her grandchildren. Her support of this trip earned her the title, "Pilgrim of the Year" in 2017.

She leaves to cherish her memory her husband Gene; a son, Mark (Kathy) Primavera; a daughter, Patty (Thomas) McCabe; along with her ten grandchildren, Marissa, David, Monica, Patrick, Colin, and Gloria McCabe and Olivia, Anna, Andrew, and Maria Primavera, who all lived on the family farm in North Lima and definitely were the joys of her life.  She also leaves behind several adored nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents, a sister, Barbara Endress; and a brother, Michael Costello.

The Primavera family has entrusted the care of Dolores to the Wasko Funeral Home and will receive family and friends on Sunday afternoon from 12 noon to 3:00pm at the Kubina-Yuhasz-Wasko Funeral Home, 5925 Market St. in Boardman, and again on Monday morning from 10 to 11am at St. Jude Catholic Church in Columbiana.

In lieu of flowers, monetary contributions will be applied to Gregorian Masses in Dolores' memory.
