I have known your daughter for years and was deeply saddened by the news of this loss. Laura was our papergirl and on occasion makes visits to us It shows in how you have raised her by her caring nature that she surely took after you in her thoughtfulness of others. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your entire family.

This photo is how I always remember Diane. I remember as a kid I looked up to her and wanted to be a beautiful young woman like her one day! She was a close family friend and my babysitter. Her whole family were truly like family to all of us Murnanes. My heart aches that I can never hear her laugh again when we talked for hours on the phone. Thoughts and prayers go out to Matthew, Laura, Jeanne, Richie and Michael. Much love, Nancy Murnane

CONTINUATION OF MESSAGE BY ELDEST SON MICHAEL...."for the well-being of the entire person and patient, an approach to caring treatment to which the history of physician care in the Firth family itself is also connected, dating back to the Eclectic Medicine movement in the U.S., over 100 years ago. The Firth name is closely connected to that movement. Interment for Diane will be beside her late husband Tony at the State Veterans Cemetery in Middletown, CT."

As Diane's eldest son, I'll post this long memorial message, as I remember her: Diane V Pasqualoni, Age 70, departed this life on the morning of Oct 7, 2013 at the Connecticut Hospice in Branford, CT. Born in Brooklyn, New York and raised in Queens, NY and Hicksville, Long Island, Diane was daughter to William Kranz and Anna (Firth) Kranz (i.e., later called Anna Dixon). A graduate of the Hicksville High School Class of 1960, Diane went on to be mother to a first born son, Michael, the product of her first marriage to Frank Canonico. Following Diane's divorce from Frank, she met, Anthony ("Tony") Pasqualoni, the man who would become her soulmate, meeting him while she was working as a keypunch operator at a factory/plant on Long Island called "Sanders" (sp?). Her son Michael received a distinction of which not all sons can boast, that of having gone out on "dates" with the couple who would come to be his parents, and doing all that prior to their actual marriage, during the heady, hopeful and tumultuous late 1960s. This fact somehow impressed upon that son the mis-impression that the tune "Age of Aquarius," blaring out of radios back in those days, must have been literally written for his mom, Aquarius being Diane's astrological star sign.
Subsequently, Diane married Tony, who would go on to be her beloved husband of 39 years, predeceasing her in early 2009. Following their marriage, came a few early years living at a garden apartment complex in the Long Island sound community of Milford, CT, and Tony's-legal adoption of Michael (facilitating that son's trade in of one long Italian last name for another. And more children arrived: Namely, a son, Matthew (who would follow in his Dad's later year career footsteps - joining the U.S. Postal Service, and also for many years, displaying a skill surpassing his father, that of becoming a near champion level, competitive bowler), as well as a daughter - Laura (who in addition to an almost genetically implanted ability to draw beautiful artworks, went on to supplement her day jobs with a long (and continuing) track record of side employment as the country's leading Mariah Carey celebrity impersonator, gigs that have taken Laura onto national TV talk shows in the U.S., and across the globe, including an appearance in Tokyo, Japan.).
During the U.S. bicentennial year of 1976, Tony and Diane purchased a home in Wallingford, CT, which would be Diane's home for over 30 years. Diane had a passion for Elvis Presley, 1950s Rock n Roll, dancers of all kinds, comic strips, New York Mets baseball and animals. Her care for many a household pet at her Wallingford home (and prior to that), in fact her love of pets of all types, brought additional joy to her own life and to the lives of her children. Sometimes reflection on a 1950s childhood in New York would take Diane back to specific memories of childhood pleasures (e.g., eating treats called Charlotte Russe, known to kids of that time and place as, not a clothing store, but a delectable, creamy, sponge-cake pastry). In the years since Diane's illness came to call, her son Michael was able to present her with not only a Xmas gift consisting of a full children's book about that long lost city kid treat called a Charlotte Russe, but also with some genuine Charlotte Russe's themselves, purchased from what is likely one of the only remaining bakeries in America still preparing them on a daily basis (Holtermann's Bakery on Staten Island - in business for well over 130 years).
Memorial gifts of any kind are also welcome at any time to a breast cancer charity of your choosing (Diane passed during Breast Cancer Awareness month) or to the Connecticut Hospice, 100 Double Beach Rd., Branford, CT 06405, which is one of the founding institutions for hospice care in the United States. Branford Hospice nurses and staff exhibited superb care for Diane in her final days, much as they did for the care of Anna (Firth) Dixon during her final days spent there in 2004. Branford's Connecticut Hospice staff reflect a genuine holistic concern for the well-being

Mom,
You will always be remembered for your loving nature towards your family and those who you cared for in every kind of way. From the first day that you were diagnosed you remained strong and wanted to fight to the very end. May God take care of you now and may you find peace crossing over to be with Dad and all our family members up in heaven. I will never forget you and you will always be in my heart with everything I do. I believe you were able to feel me next to you as you made your journey. You will sadly be missed but know that you will always be loved everyday -every minute every hour..XXOO I love you mom.
LOVE ALWAYS ,
Your Daughter Laura
