Thank you for your dedication and love for students. You made a difference in my life and love of learning. Still remember your encouragement when I was a 7th grader at Meany. Heavens are brighter because of the joy you brought to students.

I noticed Ron sent a message on the date of my birthday! Thanks for reminder to think of dear Dee Dee and reflect on the wonder of her being a racing whirlwind of color! I know she is still happily skipping along, tossing out rainbows of love!

We met Dee Dee for a few hours during a flying from bangkok to denpasar, in 2000.
Simply sweet.
Good bye Dee Dee.
Ciao

I'm so glad to have found this, even though it is several years since she passed. Dee Dee was my teacher, but also a friend.
Dee Dee was kind, brave and inspiring. As an educator she chose that most awkward of times, middle school, and reveled in it. At a time when we all struggled with trying desperately to be included she was a radiant example of how to be true to yourself, live the life you want and give selflessly.
Thank you Ms Rainbow!

Dee Dee came to a Come As Your Mother (or don't come at all) Party years ago where she arrived as her mother, Edna, and her 2 children dress in full rainbow and glitter. I did not know we lost this bright soul -- my condolences to the family!

I met Dee Dee in the early 80's. I spent a weekend in her home, and so enjoyed meditating with her and her friends, and having some serious fun during that short time I got to spend with her. I will never forget her. SHINE ON IN THE HEAVENS, OH ONE SO BRIGHT! HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
