Prayers, love and blessings and may your positive loving memories comfort you now and as you continue to remember & miss Dion. I interacted with Dion as a board member at the RLD- As you know, he was thoughtful, respectful, cheerful and competent... Enjoy each other as you share memories of the positive impact Dion had not only on his family and loved ones but in his sphere of influence! Blessings and love!!

Sending my deepest condolences for the loss of your loved one. Dion was always a pleasure to be around. He always seemed to have a smile on his face even in the most stressful days at work. I will truly miss working and seeing Dion on a daily basis. Fly high with the angels and dance with the stars.
