To this union were born children Melissa and Cory, whom she loved and encouraged to the end. Dini and her family spent most of their years together in the Bismarck/Mandan area. She was the friendly day captain of the Seven Seas Restaurant for 13 years where she oversaw their servers. From then to present Dini was again serving others as part of a home health service team. She loved caring for others and was devoted to her client’s needs.
Dini spent most of her free time with the love of her life, Blair. She loved the road cruises they took through the badlands and country drives. She was always there to listen and give advice to family members to help them with their life challenges. Her smile was comforting to everyone she came in contact with, and everyone loved her happy laugh. Her grandson J J brought special happiness to her life. She had a special fondness for daisies, ladybugs, butterflies, buttons and marbles. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
