J. DELIA Obituary
J. Diane Delia, age 59, of Whitehall Borough, left this place in peace on Friday, July 2, 2010 after a long illness. Beautiful wife of John Delia. Loving mother of Ronald Lintner & Joseph Delia. Beloved daughter of June Galioto and the late Andrew Galioto & Dolores Bergamasco and the late Joseph Bergamasco. Grand- mother of Christopher & Brittnie Lintner. Sister of John, Andy, Tom & Danny Galioto, Robert Bergamasco and the late Linda Hill and also the absolute best sister and brother-in-law anyone could ever have - Cheryl & James Lyne. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews and their loving families. She is also survived by her devoted kitty, Minnie, who misses her mommy very much. Diane faced many challenges in her life, but she dealt with all of them with dignity and courage. For that she will always be loved and admired. We can all learn much from her unwavering tenacity. The family also wishes to "Thank" the staff of the TICU at Montefiore Hospital for the care and compassion given to Diane during her stay there. They are truly "Special People". Visitation will be Tuesday, July 6 from 7-9 p.m. and Wednesday, July 7 from 2-4 & 7-9 p.m. at the JEFFERSON MEMORIAL FUNERAL HOME, 301 Curry Hollow Road, Pleasant Hills, where a Funeral Service will be held on Thursday, July 8 at 11 a.m. Burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, Diane's family requests that donations be made in her name to Animal Friends, Western PA Humane Society, Animal Rescue League or the Pittsburgh Zoo. Diane firmly believed that all animals deserve a chance. We owe them that.

I met Diane at Pulmonary Rehab. at Jefferson Hospital. I've witnessed her many ups and downs over the years. She was a real fighter and survivor and deserved nothing but the best in life. I pray for her everyday and now I have this hugh void in my heart without her. Blessings to her family and all who loved her, including her dear Minnie.
