<h3>Dolores Elizabeth ‘Dee’ Suisman</h3>
Dolores Elizabeth “Dee” Suisman died February 27, 2015, at The Courtyards, Sun City Center, Fla.,   caring friends at her side.  Born August 26, 1926, in Atlantic City, N.J., she was the first child of Benjamin Suisman and Alice (Suesseger) Suisman. She attended Atlantic City schools until 1941, when she moved with her family to the Canal Zone in the Republic of Panama.

After graduating in 1944, Dolores began what would be a 28-year career with the U.S. Government in the Canal Zone, with a few years’ hiatus spent in New York City. In the Canal Zone, Dolores worked in the public affairs offices of both the U.S. Army and the U.S. Air Force before joining the Panama Canal Information Office as a writer in 1973. Along the way, she picked up the nickname of “Dee.”

Retiring from the Panama Canal Company in July, 1979, Dee left Panama to join her family in Sun City Center. Dee was predeceased by her parents, her sister, Eileen, and her brother, Robert.

Services for Dee will be held later this month at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church.
