My condolences to your family for the loss of Dina. I lived on Forest St and Dina’s family lived next door to my aunt on Grove St. Dina and I would dress up in our mothers dresses, jewelry and high heels. Of course we also put on their lipstick. Then parade up and down Grove St and laugh and laugh. I have so many fond memories of Dina! My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
