Diana French obituary | December 13, 2024
Diana (Di) DeLonge French van Mahwah passed away peacefully in her home on December 13, 2024 at the age of 82. She is survived by her loving husband, James (Jay) French, daughters Laurie Tremblay (Mike) and Megan Suhadolc (Brian), brother, Dave DeLonge (Meng), and her grandchildren Kristyn, Kevin, Scott, Evan and Hayden. Di was preceded in death by her parents, Ken and Rachael DeLonge and her brothers, Ron and Gary DeLonge. Di grew up in Cranford, NJ and married her high school sweetheart Jay after graduating from Bucknell University. They had their two daughters while living in Cranford, then moved briefly to Dallas, TX and Farmington Hills, MI, before settling in Mahwah in 1977. After raising her girls, she went to work as an assistant to a financial planner for 22 years. Di was very active in the First Presbyterian Church of Ramsey, singing in the choir and volunteering in many capacities. She cherished the friendships she made through church, and these dear friends continued to include Di in their birthday lunches until the end.
Everyone who knew Di knew her passion for sports. She was an excellent skier, tennis player and paddle player, and later in life took up golf so she could join Jay on the links. She was a loyal and enthusiastic fan of her grandchildren's games and looked forward to every game. During baseball games, fellow spectators could count on Di for score updates because she diligently kept her own scorebook. At home she watched all kinds of sports on TV: golf, tennis, basketball, baseball and football. However, her favorite Yankees were by far her beloved Yankees, and when she couldn't watch them on TV, she listened to the game on her car radio. Yankee fans among us are hoping that she can now pull the strings in our favor from above.
Di was always up for adventure. She and Jay vacationed frequently with close friends, traveling to destinations such as Paris, Barcelona, Prague, Budapest, Alaska and the Caribbean. Near and dear to her heart were annual family trips – golfing in Hilton Head and Palm Desert, and picnics and games in the front yard at the summer house in Grafton, VT.
Di's five grandchildren were her pride and joy, and she enjoyed her role as Gramma. Tuesdays were her favorite days because she got to spend them taking care of Kristyn, Kevin, and Scott when they were young. She made those days special by filling them with sports, reading, games and laughter. For her grandsons in Utah, Evan and Hayden, she didn't let distance stop her from being just as present in their lives. She visited the boys several times a year, never missed the long-awaited Christmas trip and enjoyed receiving updates on all their activities.
Di's family will be forever grateful to caregivers Maggie and Veronica for their compassionate and devoted care of Di over the past five years. A memorial service for Di will be held in the spring. Donations in Di's memory can be made to the Alzheimer's Association.
