Mrs Keaner was always quick to feed an army of rascal boys and their seemed to always be a magical ham or roast beef always brewing in her kitchen . You couldn't leave her presence till you ate a plate and talked about your day with her . She had the most warm and inviting smile and was always quick to share it with you , you were family when you were with her . Being " family" meant you might be sworn at in curse words you would never of heard , even in 80's movies ! She was one of the handful of adults a kid growing up would trust and love , she would accept nothing less than that . I will miss her and her quick wit and giant bear hugs . The world is less bright and less happy without her in it . See you in Heaven Mrs Keaner .

We were all blessed to have "Ma" in our lives. She was our Angel on Earth and now moved on to be our guardian angel. Words could never express the loss we feel but know our reunion one day will be glorious. Love you, Miss you

What a loving example Aunt Dianne left for all of us. I always felt special and loved in her presence! She had that way about her! I'll never forget the love and support when we lost Gary. Aunt Dianne was the first one at my door with food and emotional support!
Love Always Aunt!
Love Kathy, Gary,Jr. and Courtney Chigaros

Condolences to all the family. I grew up across the street from Diane, Jackie and Art. Diane was always kind and helpful to all. A few years back she put me and my late sister Marge up for the night after a reunion held at her house. Then she and Malachy took us out for breakfast before our long trip home. She was kind and generous and will be missed.

To my Beautiful Irish Aunt. You will be missed by many. Your warm welcome, your door always open, hot tea and your famous Irish soda bread. There will be no one to fill your shoes. Love You, The Macchione's
