Daisy was an extremely nice person. Her warm smile and talkative personality made an individual feel good whenever one was around her. Paul Chesler, a condo neighbor.

Daisey,along with Harry and Frannie, was one of the first people I ever knew. She was always a delight to see, seemed to always have a smile, a kind word, an infectious sweetness. One of the most likeable people ever

Growing up in South Shore around the corner from Aunt Daisy, Uncle Harry, and "cousin" Franny, their family felt like mine and vice versa. (It wasn't until 1961 that Franny told me we were not biologically related.) Daisy is now my mom's longest-living friend, and her shining smile and sparkling eyes will never be forgotten. I love you, Aunt Daisy! Say hi to Mom, Dad, and, of course, Uncle Harry!
