Marianne Josephine Diaco

I have so many happy memories of Marianne. She was a dear cousin as well as a best friend of my mother. Our family had so much fun and lots of laughter with her and her family whether it was at home, at her shore house, or during the time she and my mother ran the Bala Hotel in Wildwood. I still remember the night the roller derby checked in and skated wildly through the hotel hallways. Marianne´s parties and her incredible hospitality were legendary. She truly enjoyed making her family and friends feel welcome. We were lucky to be a part of her family. She was an extraordinary woman who I was blessed to know. She had a beautiful soul and I will always cherish how very special she made me feel.

Here I am, in the arms of my Loving Godparents Marianne & Frank. Love Forever, Linda.
