“I was so sad to read of the passing of this lovely lady. I was so fortunate to have spent time with her during visits with Dianne. Mrs. Aarts warm,. welcoming personality mixed with her charming sense of humour made it a pleasure just to be in her presence. Through Dianne I knew how much her mother loved her family and how much she was loved. To the entire Aarts family I send my sincere condolences. Pat Ranalli.”
