Cherished daughter of the late Gemma and Adolfo Scanzoni. Dina received her Master’s Degree and Doctorate from the University of Toronto and was an Educator at several Peterborough area elementary schools, most recently as Principal at King George and Young’s Point Schools. She served as a Board Member of Friends of Honduran Children and was involved with Teacher’s for Kids Charity.
