Dolly Wells

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dolly J. Wells, born on November 20, 1951, in Newport, Kentucky. Dolly departed this world peacefully on January 20, 2026 at the age of 74.

Dolly was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, daughter and sister, dedicating her life to her family. She leaves behind a loving family, including her son Paul Wells, her granddaughter Kala Nicole Caldwell, and her dear nephew Charles Daryl Schoonover. She is preceded in death by her beloved husband Paul Wells, her parents Daw and Barbara Parker, her daughter Shannon Kasarcik, and her sister Rebecca Kim Schoonover.

She possessed a strong faith and a deep love for Jesus, who was her everything and her greatest love. She taught Sunday school at church for several years. Dolly ran a charity known as Starfish Mission, embodying compassion and selflessness, always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

Throughout her life, Dolly enjoyed the peaceful art of cross-stitching and was known as the peacemaker of the family, ensuring harmony and love surrounded all those fortunate enough to know her. Her nurturing spirit and warm smile will be deeply missed.

The family will receive friends at Evans Funeral Home, Milford, on Wednesday, January 28th from 10 AM until the time of funeral services beginning at 11 AM. Burial will follow at Myers Cemetery in Goshen, Ohio.

In this time of sorrow, the family finds comfort in cherishing the memories of Dolly-a woman whose heart was as vast as her love for family and community
