DINOIA, Barbara Barbara DiNoia passed away peacefully at Greenwich Hospital on Thursday, (January 18, 2007) following a valiant five-year struggle with breast cancer.

Barbara was the office manager for the Dickerman F. Hollister, Jr. Oncology Practice and ultimately, the Hematology & Oncology Associates of Greenwich for over twenty years. She was deeply devoted to a love of sun and sea, her dogs, and photography, which she artfully combined into a remarkable photography collection. She is survived by her parents, Rita and Manny DiNoia of Old Saybrook; her sister and brother-in-law, Ruthanne and Jay Rothman, also of Old Saybrook; her borther and sister-in-law, Greg and Karen DiNoia of Mullica Hill, NJ; her brother Tim of Homosassa, Florida; and 11 nieces and nephews. A gathering in her honor will be held at the Leo P.
