My Grandmother’s Memorial

I have very sad news. My grandma Joanne DeFiore passed away this weekend unexpectedly. This artwork of the snowman on the beach is something that she drew that I’ve always loved and wanted to share with you all.She was one of my best friends in the world. She was a gifted artist and calligrapher. My kids adored their GG DeFiore and she was always thinking of them. Rehoboth Beach was a part of her soul, and Rehoboth has lost one of its best and most loyal friends. You can’t walk 100 ft without seeing something she’s left her mark on. She helped my Poppa through a very difficult time leading up to his death and I am very grateful for that. Since my brothers and I were very young, she has always encouraged creativity and expression, and I owe a lot to her. She’s travelled the world and was involved in countless community organizations, clubs, and activities, yet she still made time for everyone and always had you in her thoughts.
