Dear Darrell, Dave and Kelli,
You don't know us, but we are the people that your folks bought Mandy from. Our hearts go out to you at this time. We have fond memories of your folks. They came to our house twice, once to look at the litter of puppies and once to pick up Mandy. They were traveling to a rabbit show in Peoria. They wanted a dog that would get along with their rabbits. They picked her up and named her Mandy. They told us that she grew up with the rabbits and she thought she was a rabbit. We saw them several years later at a dog show in Blue Island and they brought Mandy by to see us. WoW!! were we ever impressed. Mandy had grown into a beautiful dog. Just this year, we spoke to Diane and she said that they had lost Mandy and were interested in getting a new puppy. They said they had had many good years with Mandy and would like to have a puppy from the same bloodlines. We considered your folks good friends and felt we knew you through them. They were loving parents to Mandy. They were good people. They were loving parents and grandparents.
They said they were inspired to get an American Eskimo because one of their sons had one and they fell in love with it. I kept them on my waiting list and called today to let them know about our puppies and spoke to one of you and found out about your loss. We are so deeply sorry for you, and pray that you can find answers in Christ's love for you.
Sincerely,
Jim and Barb Blackwood

It was 1983 when I first met Diana. If I recall she was an interviewer, soon promoted to a Supervisor after I had started at Alpha Research. As a 17 year old "spunky" kid I would joke with Diana while she always put up with me. I remember singing the Michael Jackson song, "Dirty Diana" to her and she would just look at me and smirk. I thought I was being cute. I knew if I was assigned to interview on a study she was supervising there would be work to be done. As years past I would be promoted to a Supervisor and a bond between us Alpha Research Supervisors would stay with us for a lifetime. Even if we lost touch, I knew we were still fondly thinking of each other. There were the Managers, Barbara Sipiera and Renee Krall (RIP) and the Supervisors, Susan Emanuelli (RIP), Stephanie Bonk (RIP), Diana Chvoy (RIP), MaryAnn Misevich, Judy Feinstein, Bruce Chaney and myself, Laura Perez. I worked with Diana for roughly 4 years, which doesn't sound like a long time, but 6 hours, 6 days a week was enough to create some wonderful memories of her. I remember her smile (and her smirk). I remember how, even when she was frustrated or angry (probably with me) how she would talk in a very calm voice. I remember her giving me advice when I graduated from high school on not taking too much time off or I might not go back. I remember her perfectly feathered, shiny hair. I remember her voice and how nervous she would get just right before a job meeting that she had to present. I remember how proud she was of her boys and how much she used to talk about them and her family. When she did a job she wanted it to be done well. After leaving Alpha/Maritz it would be years before I would talk to Diana again. When we ran into each other two years ago and spoke on the phone it was like time never went by. She told me of her boys and how her family was doing. Dear Chvoy family, I can not express into words how deeply sad I am to hear of the passing of both Diana and Andy. The entire Chvoy family will be in my prayers and this now grown up woman will never forget the impression that Diana Chvoy left on her. Rest in peace my dear, old friend and mentor. Till we meet again. Laura (Perez) Springer
