I thought she was the most beautiful and caring person in the world. I was new at the school in '69 and she acknowledged me and made me feel comfortable. D'Ann was an Earth Angel watching over those in need of something - even as simple as "Welcome, I am glad you are here". Rest In Peace, D'Ann.
I talked to D'Ann the night before her tragic car accident. We had plans to get together for another movie. We had seen Mystic River the month before... After the accident, I inherited her dog, a BEAUTIFUL champagne colored chow, named Mr. Wuz. He was the BEST dog in the world!! He was a tribute to her love and devotion. He had survived the accident which she did not. I often wondered what he knew, but could not share....Sadly, he died 14 months later. It was like losing D all over again.... Now, I picture them running through the clouds together. Maybe she had only "loaned" him to me!! He was such a good dog....and she was such a good friend.... I miss them both!!
D'Ann, you were one of the true loves of my life. It all started with you, me, Robbie and Kyle hanging out at Paramount Terrace. I called you three times the day you died and didn't know you were already gone until I got home that night and Robbie called. I was blessed with you in my life and now with you in my memories. I love you bigger than the sky, and then some. You mother joined you in Heaven this month in 2011. Now it's you, your mom and dad together again. I can say that I knew and loved all three of you with all of my heart, including Roxie. Of course, I'm pretty sure I wet my pants the first time I met your dad, but then he stuck a pair of bar bells in mine and Kyle's hands and made us work out with him, which was a big job. He worked out hard. He didn't have any sons so I think he kind of took on Kyle and I. What a great family you have. And now you're all in the presence of our Lord, where you belong.
wow, what can I say that all these people haven't. Randy Evans I definitely feel your loss as it is a loss for all of us that knew her. Gorgious, beautiful,caring,sweet, and the tributes that you are getting here are well deserved. All the people who have commented on her I knew really well and this speaks volumes of her life here. She was definitely take away from us way too soon. I don't think there was anyone that did not like D'Ann and she is shining on the other side. Rest in Peace sweet Angel and def see you on the other side.
I will always remember in the first grade at an in the room part at Coronado Elementary telling D'Ann that I thought her mother had a mustache...little did I know she, as cute as she was then, she would grow up to be such a beautiful vibrant lady...and I would embark on my life of speaking before thinking.
