Saratoga Springs, NY- Dolores Joan Robson nee Kamis, age 89, recently returned to New York, living in Saratoga Springs, after 27 years in Venice, Florida. She passed peacefully surrounded by family into the arms of St. Mary and her angels on Monday, November 27, 2023.

"Dee" was born in Cleveland, Ohio on May 20, 1934, the youngest of 5 children, to James Kamis and Wilhelmina Everett. She was a 1952 graduate of Parma Schaaf High School where she was a proud member of the Seven Sisters Sorority. She went on to become a Clerk in the Cuyahoga County Courthouse in Cleveland, Ohio before moving to New York where raising her children and being an active influence in their lives was her main focus for many years.

She was a member of the Methodist Church with a deeply spiritual faith. A natural entertainer, with a stunning smile and personality to match, she was an actress in the Venice Little Theatre in Venice, Florida for over 20 years and was honored to be inducted into their Hall of Fame. As a member of the National Clown Hall of Fame, she spent many years sharing her boundless talents and joy with all who had the privilege of watching her perform.

She will be greatly missed by the love of her life, Jack, her husband of 68 years and her children, Jack Robson (Pam) of Clifton Park, NY, Barbara Robson of Waterford, NY, and Patti Shaw (Warren) of Clifton Park, NY as well as 9 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren. A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, she was the strength of the family who guided everyone with her faith, unconditional love, and acceptance.

Gratitude is extended to the staff of Saratoga Hospital and Community Hospice for the attention, care, and support they provided to Dee and her entire family.
