Dear Demouy Family,

Didi was very special to me. I really appreciated her enthusiastic and positive outlook on life. It's been a pleasure knowing her, and I will miss our phone chats, which I always enjoyed. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

God bless,

Scott

So sorry to hear of Didi's passing. I spent many hours at Harry and Didi's home during my high school years. Both were loads of fun and I loved them very much. My prayers are with the Demouy family at this time. God bless all of you.

I have many fond memories of Mrs. Didi and Mr. Harry. Most of all I remember the two of them as happy, laughing and enjoying life. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

We grew to love Mr. and Mrs. Demouy as we sat next to them at LSU football games for years. We especially loved to visit discussing our families, which included my long-time friends, Paul Henry and the late Ronnie -- their successes and the activities of their much loved children and grandchildren. We know that your wonderful Mom will be missed, but we join you in cherishing her memory. Also, you are comforted in knowing that you will see her again in Heaven.
Much love and sympathy to you, Paul Henry, and to all of the Demouy family. David and Roberta DeRossett, McKinney, TX

Mr and Mrs Demouy were a constant presence in my teen years. They were the "go-to" adults when you had a question or a dilemma. I used to love to watch Didi and Harry dance, such joy and grace. They related to teens like few adults could. The world needs more people with the gifts of Didi.

I loved DiDi for everything she did for the OLOM CYO together with Harry. Later, I got to enjoy her company as an adult through bowling. Lots of memories here to cherish. God Bless your families in this time of sorrow.
