During this past year we lost the matriarch of our family, Delores L. (Prior) Powers. She was born Dec. 18, 1940, in Mechanicsburg. She married John F. Powers Sr. (1940-2003) on Oct. 15, 1957. They had five children, John F. Powers Jr., Levi L. Powers Sr., Vickie D. Landholt, Mark Q. Powers and Charlene D. Walsh. They also raised their oldest granddaughter, Cheri L. Plummer. Delores was loved by many but more importantly her family. She was a proud “Meme” to 13 grandchildren, 23 great-grandchildren and three great-great grandchildren. She joined her beloved husband in heaven on Nov. 4, 2023.
