    April 13, 1930 - July 3, 2021

    Huntersville - Dora (Ciemania) West, 91 of Wilmington, DE peacefully passed away on Saturday, July 3, 2021. Dora was born in Wilmington, DE on April 13, 1930, daughter of the late Angelo and Josephine (Lorenzo) Ciemania. She was nicknamed “The Baby” and the last of eleven siblings growing up on 13th Street in Wilmington’s Little Italy. What a fun and loving family growing up with sisters Mary (Dolores, June), Josephine, Louise (Beverly, Bobby), Julia (Joanne, Robert, Sandy), Anne (Stephen, Vicki), Elizabeth (Robert, David), Jeanette and brothers Louis, Anthony (Glenn, Anita) and Francis (Franny). Dora now joins her deceased and beloved husband, Clement P. West and son, Clement P. (Paul) West Jr. but is survived by her daughter, Patricia West McKee of Charlotte NC, her grandsons, Paul S. McKee of Charlotte NC and Christopher B. McKee of Seattle, WA along with several nieces and nephews. A visitation will be held in Dora’s memory at the Arcaro Funeral Home, 2309 Lancaster Ave, Wilmington DE on Monday, July 12, 2021 at 12noon, service will start at 1pm, followed by a graveside service in All Saints Cemetery, 6001 Kirkwood Highway, Wilmington, DE. In lieu of flowers, send a contribution to Dora’s favorite charity - St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital at https://www.stjude.org/donate/donate-to-st-jude.html. In the words of Dora - “In every family there is sadness and death, but there is also much happiness with generations of new children. And so - the families go on and on. I love you all. The Baby” James Funeral Home served the family locally.
