So sorry, Rita. Take care. Live to you. Gloria

Such a beautiful person, I'll always remember you Dana, thanks for everything!

I was so sorry to hear about Dana. We were close friends our senior year and several years after. Unfortunately, we went our separate ways over the years and lost touch with one another. I've thought about Dana often, and the sometimes crazy things we did after graduation. She was always a good friend!

My sincere condolences to the family and pray now that Dana is at peace.

Sarah, Rita and Brenda: Sorry to hear about her passing

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
