Not sure what to say?

Some of my best times as a young adult were those at the studio in Hyde Park, on the 2nd floor on River Street. You gave us direction, and self confidence,along with some wonderful friends. Those rehearsals at the shell at the Stop and Shop, as well as the summer visits to your home will always be in my memory. Everyone was always hoping it would be their turn to stay at your summer home.
Thank you for all your positive influences in my life.

Daurice was a second mother to me. I started lessons with her at age 18months, my first recital at age 2yrs. Have thought about her often. God bless her. I am now 73 and still dance around the house. Althea Fitch Cromwell Westport Island, Maine

Daurice was my first Dance Teacher I learned a lot from her and have had a love of any kind of Dancing because of her. I also was a member of her Drum and Bugle Corp. My sister and I did not live in Hyde Park. We lived in Jamaica Plain and a few nights when our father had to work we would have an informal dinner with Daurice and Mac upstairs from the Studio after Drum & Bugle practice. Daurice was a perfectionist and in being so she instilled the love of Dance in many she showed us that...

God bless you Daurice. To me you were a mentor and a teacher. I still remember as far back as 1947 attending Camp Daurice. Later learning the Accordion, learning the art of the dance, and later the bugle because you wanted to start a Drum and Bugle Corps. We were called, "The Vigilantes", in 1950. It was for your love of country western that we were to wear cowboy and cowgirl outfits. Stayed until 1954. It was a life I'm glad I learned. You are in my heart and mind every day and I'm sure...

Daurice as your Memorial Service begins know that you are in the hearts of the Lovitz family. Our memories are many and we will all miss you! Hoping you and Mac are dancing up a storm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
