Esther “Dolly” Ayala

Esther "Dolly" Ayala gained her beautiful wings on February 14th, 2021 and has now joined our loved ones who have preceded her. She was born April 7, 1955, daughter of Jess and Carmen Ayala. She was born and raised in Riverside with her 8 brothers and sisters. She remained in Riverside never wanting to leave and always stay close to her family and friends. She was truly a proud resident. She can be remembered by many for a countless number of reasons, but many will also have the same memories such as her infectious laugh that would make anyone laugh. Her beautiful, radiant, and attention getter blue eyes. But most importantly her love for her family and friends always willing to lend a hand, give advice, and let them know they are loved. She loved family gatherings, music, and dancing. She enjoyed last minute trips to Newport Beach to relax & listen to the waves of the ocean. She loved going to the Casino and getaways to Vegas. She loved watching her boys in blue, The Los Angeles Dodgers and let us not forget her love for the sport of Boxing and a true fan. Above all she absolutely loved and adored her 4 grandchildren who meant the world to her. Dolly is survived by her 2 daughters, son in-laws, and 4 grandchildren - Farrah Dotson and her husband Josh Dotson and their children Ariana and Gabriel; and Michelle Meza and her husband Ramiro Meza Jr., and their children Jeremy and Izabella. Dolly is also survived by her 3 brothers and 3 sisters, godchildren, and many nieces and nephews. She will truly be missed by everyone who has ever had the pleasure of crossing paths with her.
