Adams County Fair Remembers Richard and Dolores Obert

Richard and Dolores (Hildebrand) Obert were married June 20, 1959 inside the St. Francis Church in Quincy. 

The Oberts could always be found at the Adams County Fair every year.  Normally you could find them visiting and laughing with fair friends inside the Bunny Barn, which was like their second family.

Dolores and Richard were strong supporters of St. Dominic School through the many, many activities of their children, grandchildren and now great-grandchildren, all of whom attended the school. She was a member of St. Francis Church.

Their greatest joy was being an active part of the lives of their eight children and their families. They believed their children were their "diamonds."

Dolores took every opportunity possible to host or be at a family gathering. She taught her children about the importance of faith and family. She went out of her way to make every holiday special, from the "Penny Candy Store" on the Fourth of July, St. Nicholas and the stockings, to making sure the "Valentine's Man" made his deliveries.
