Anita "Diddy/Diddie" Dearman (Pazzi), aged 86, passed away on May 10, 2025, in Edgewater, Florida. Born on January 1, 1939, in White Plains, NY.

Anita dedicated much of her professional life working for the communication industry starting her career as an Overseas Operator, and retiring as an Information Operator.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Anita was deeply devoted to her family. She is survived by her two children, Heidi Dearman Morris and William "Bill" Dearman, and her son-in-law, Dave Morris. She was preceded in death by her parents, Maria "Mary" Bevoni Pazzi and Livio Pazzi, as well as her siblings, Barbara Pazzi Fanelli, James Pazzi, Louis Strada, and Raymond Strada.

Anita enjoyed the simple pleasures in life.  She loved spending time with her two children, and hearing all about their lives making a point to journal their milestones.  She also had a great love of nature spending her free time watching everything from birds, to butterflies. She loved a good thunderstorm, and enjoyed the peacefulness of shoveling snow. Taking time to smell the roses by relaxing to a good mystery, crime, or court show was another love she had.

Anita will be remembered fondly, and will be greatly missed. One of the most memorable aspects will always be her selflessness.  Always helping others, being an optimist, and not having a bad word to say about anyone.
