Note: The surname is in question. In checking with the archivist at the Motherhouse in Manitowoc, Sr. Caritas Strodthoff, the records for Sr. Delores all give the surname Price. This includes her baptismal record. Her parents and sibs used the surname Pruess which more than likely was the Germanic spelling.
