LITTLE FALLS - Mrs. Dolores I. “Lorrie” Keefe, age 87, of Little Falls, New York, passed away peacefully, on Friday, February 24, 2023, in the comfort of the Presbyterian home, surrounded by her family.
Dolores was born on June 7, 1935, in Ilion, the daughter of the late Albert and Marie (Lewis) Trautner. She was raised and educated in Little Falls schools, having graduated from there. For many years, Lorrie worked in the Little Falls area, having spent a majority of her career waitressing, at Conte’s Restaurant, as well as that of an office manager, at WLFH Radio, in Little Falls.
On October 23, 1957, Dolores entered into a marriage union with Donald Keefe and the couple were married many years, until his passing away, on September 17, 1998.
Dolores, or “Lorrie” as we called her, was a loving wife, mother and grandmother. She enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren. She loved playing cards, Mets baseball and winters in Florida, where she had moved between 2000-2017. She had a great love for her cats and would care for stray cats.
