Read MoreWhat a great person Dion was. He was one of the first people I met when I came to work at GE Aviation and was my lead. He introduced me to the team and always made me feel like I could ask him anything. Such a sad loss. May God's love be with you and your family.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Dion at GE, and he was a very kind man with an infectious smile. His love for the Lord and people always shined through in everything he did. I believe these are the words he heard, when entering his heavenly home...”His master replied, “Well done good and faithful servant. You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your Master’s happiness. Matthew 25:23

Cathy - so sorry to hear of Dion's passing. Dion is one of the best Men I've ever known. He was a TRUE Man of God and now he is with Jesus! You're in our prayers.

What a remarkable man, from a wonderful family! I knew Dion as a young boy, when he and his siblings were swimmers on an age-group swimming team that I coached, at the Lowell YMCA outdoor community pool in the summers of 1966, 67 and 68.
He was 7-9 years old, and a terrific kid, enthusiastic and happy. Those were great times to grow up in Lowell. My sincerest condolences to his family. May Dion's soul remain forever in our memories and in God's Heaven..
