Dee was a kind, caring neighbor on Union Street in Scottsville during the 1970’s & ‘80s. As very young children, Dee invited us to swim in her pool. The invitation Dee extended included swim instruction. Dee was patient. Dee was reassuring. Dee pushed outside of our comfort zones. And within a few visits, we were paddling and kicking on our own. Thanks, Dee. You taught most of the kids on Union Street to swim. And your cherry-red stick shift corvette with the black convertible top was kick ass. My sympathy to Dee’s family. Rest easy, Dee. Thank you for taking is us under your wing.

Dee was "one of a kind" always a friendly smile and a "pinch". Will miss her.

I remember when I was looking for a position early in my teaching career, Dee hired me to cover another teacher's long-term maternity leave in Churchville-Chili. That turned into a contract position in the same school for a few more years until I moved away from the Rochester area. I was always grateful for the start that Dee gave me in the public schools. May her memory be a blessing.

Dee’s quirky sense of humor will be missed. She was always a lot of fun! She was a terrific friend to her aunt Kay. That was so special. I pray they are having a ball in heaven
