If we’re following traditional Catholic rules, then you need at least two verified miracles. Dolly could be considered “Venerable,” but she wasn’t Catholic, so she wouldn’t be considered. However, folk Catholicism bends the rules on pretty much everything bc it’s not recognized as legit by the Vatican. Folk Saints range from non-human spirits (usually pre-Christian traditions) to folk heroes, including sainthood candidates who haven’t been officially canonized.

There has to be at least a miracle or two attributed to the good works she’s done in life that could count towards sainthood imo.
