Thinking of my lovely Aunt Lisa and her bright light today
Happy birthday, Lisa. You are deeply missed!
I’ve been at a loss for what to say since Lisa’s passing. Lisa was my aunt and a truly kind person — just a good soul. Those words are so true, but they don’t do her justice. They don’t really show the depth of her sweetness.
I know it’s cheesy, but I keep coming back to the Maya Angelou quote where she emphasizes that people remember most how someone else makes them feel. Above all else, Lisa made people welcome, comfortable to be themselves. As an educator, I’ve thought, countless times, just how valuable Lisa would be as a member of my school, creating a more compassionate, comfortable environment for students and for staff; I’ve thought about what a crucial member of her community she was because of her welcoming nature and her consistency. What a gift to give those around her — constant, unrelenting openness and kindness! How unfair to lose such a mainstay of good! Her passing is certainly a major loss for her whole community and our entire family.
I wish more people were able to know her. I wish I was able to know her better.
I hope we are able to carry her compassionate nature forward to those in our lives.
With love and sorrow,
Julie Balsamo
First I would like to send my love to the family <3 You're all in my thoughts daily.
As for Mrs. Didycz I have SO many memories. Being friends with her daughter I was always over their house, we lived a walking distance away from each other.... we would play sims, the PlayStation, have movie nights, and I could go on and on... I even got to tag along on a trip to Pittsburgh which I will never forget!! Mrs. Didycz always treated everyone like they were her own kids. She was always so fun and had the biggest heart!! I remember trips to Walmart where she was always looking for a good deal!! Or how I found my love of tea from when she would make us hot tea and cookies. She also happened to be the COOLEST and BEST lunch lady we ever had!! lol Always so happy and smiling, she could make your worst day turn around like that. Her loss I know has touched many, the way her infectious personality has <3333 May she rest in piece and never be forgotten. I'll be sure to light a bath and body works candle JUST for her.
with all my love

I had no idea that Lisa was ill. She was one of my first and dearest childhood friends. Eileen and I spent hours on the phone this evening reminiscing. Many laughs and tears. Bob, I am so sorry for your loss. In many ways she was a big sister to me. Sending prayers to you and your children. ~ Mimi Keller
I used to work at the dollar general in town Milton and had the pleasure of waiting on Mrs.Lisa she is such a beautiful soul. I will always remember our Clark Kent look alike conversation. Many healing thoughts for you Mr.D
Throughout my angsty pre-teen years at Lewes Middle, whenever I came across Lisa at lunch she would always make me smile or laugh. She was such a special person. My condolences to her family.
Thinking of Lisa and my Delaware Didycz family with love every day.
