Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. We are going to deeply miss this wonderful lady. So many great memories of our time together. We love you Dianne (aka Grandma, Mema, and our wine buddy). You and Senior can now practice your dance moves together! Until we meet again precious friend.

  2. What a special, wonderful Jersey girl. There are so many great memories from our time at Deerfield, so much laughter, so much love. I will miss her so, but what a joy to know that she will be with her precious Louie. I will not be able to be at the service, as I will be out in California with my son for his 55th birthday. But Len, Louis and Tracy, know that she was and will be a special part of my life. I can still hear her try to pronounce “drawer”!

  3. I will miss our talks in the neighborhood usually when she was coming home from work. Such a nice lady. My thoughts are with the family.
