Dolores Anna Lewis

Dolores Anna Lewis, lovingly known as “Pickles,” passed away at age 79 on March 29, 2026, after a courageous battle with lung cancer.

She was born on May 27, 1946, in Torrance, California, to Albert Muro and Esther Hernandez Muro. She married Paul Lewis in 1971, and together they made their home in Salt Lake City, Utah, where they raised their two sons, Abel and Tony.

Dolores was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who fiercely loved and protected her family. Her marriage to Paul was full of love and included many vacations and trips to their favorite places, including the Oregon Coast and Yellowstone. She was the biggest advocate for her children and grandchildren and never hesitated to stand up for them. Pickles loved shopping, dancing, and cooking, and kept an unmatched collection of purses—always carrying just the right one for the occasion.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her dear mother-in-law, Harriet Vernettie Lewis; her best friend, Jeanette Hofeling; her three brothers; her grandson, Cooper Nagy; her great-grandson, Hudson Nagy; and many beloved aunts, uncles, and cousins.

She is survived by her sister, Louise Treese (Richard); her husband, Paul Lewis; her sons, Abel (Laura) Nagy and Tony (Jennifer) Lewis; five grandchildren: Cole (Alex) Nagy, Mason (Santana) Nagy, Gabriel Lewis, Teauna (Sage) Lewis, and Alexander Lewis; and one great-grandchild, Dean Nagy.

A visitation will be held Sunday, April 5, at Larkin Mortuary - Riverton, located 3688 West 12600 South in Riverton, Utah from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Funeral services will be held at 1:00 p.m. at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Draper, Utah with a visitation held prior to the funeral mass beginning at 11:30 a.m. Interment and Committal will take place at Larkin Sunset Gardens Cemetery in Sandy, Utah.

The family extends their heartfelt thanks to her niece, Gina Treese, for her loving care in Pickles’ final days, and to her dear friend and neighbor of 50 years, Markie “Moose” Fair, whose steadfast presence and remarkable friendship meant so much to her throughout her life.

Dolores will be remembered for her laughter, her strength, and her fierce devotion to those she loved.
