Dana was a truly Valuable Person. She left the planet so much better off than when she joined it. And she did it with humor.

We will miss our sister-in-law Dana. She was always an energetic, kind, and generous person, especially with our "kids" (now 46 and 42). They still cherish their monogrammed Christmas stockings that Auntie Dana made for them so many years ago. We were both amazed to learn of her childhood and teen years and how strong willed and brave she had to be to accomplish all she did in life. Both our daughters kept their maiden names when they married and we have a grandson with the D'Unger...

We will miss our friend and neighbor Dana very much. Much love to Dan, Alex and Greg in this sad time. Thinking of you...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Fly high with the angels Dana! You will be missed!! Mary

I've never met Dana but have heard so much about her and her accomplishments from her brother Nicholas. He states the world has lost a shining star.

Dana was such a wonderful person! I am so sorry that we, but particularly, of course, you, her loved ones, could not have enjoyed the pleasure of her company longer. But if anyone can boast of a well-lived life, it is Dana!


Greg, Dan & Alex,

So sorry for your loss. What a wonderful obituary & lovely photo. Dana lived such a full life I had heard many of her stories but I still learned about some interesting things that I hadn't been aware of. I will miss her friendship, her affection for my children and the interest that she took in everything. Dana felt powerfully about causes & people- but nothing was stronger than her love for the 3 of you.

Dear Greg and Family,

I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Dana at WIC for a brief time. I remember she had a beautiful heart and she was always positive and enthusiastic. She made a beautiful, amazing knitted sheep for my daughter when she was born. She was so very talented. You are in my thoughts.
