Dr. Dolores Ann Mooney (Farrell), known to friends as “Dee,” passed away peacefully after a prolonged illness on May 26, 2020, at the age of 72.

Dee was born September 12, 1947 in Bernardsville, New Jersey, daughter of the late Edmund S. Farrell Sr. and late Regina Dolores Farrell (Nolan). A longtime resident of Sarasota, Florida, she is predeceased by her husband, Lannie Mooney, and brother, John “Jay” Farrell.

Dee is survived by her son Charles C. Mooney and his wife Bridget of Fayetteville, AR, daughter Meagan “Kat” Mooney and her husband Karl of Makawao, HI, brothers Edmund “Steve” Farrell and Charles Farrell of Needham, MA, four-grandchildren, and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Dee was a scientist, specialized in molecular biology, having studied at Immaculata College, Boston College and Tufts University, where she received her PhD at the age of 28. She was a forceful personality who did not suffer fools gladly, but her sternness was accompanied by an incredible intellect and inner strength. Belied by her red hair, Dee could often be cantankerous and brazen, yet also appreciated for her honesty and frank appraisals. An avid and voracious reader, she touched many people and will be missed.
