Regina Caroline Dickson Kinnally August 21, 1951-November 16, 2021 IMAGINE… Cutest little girl, all smiles riding her bike, roller skating on the streets of her beloved neighborhood, the Flats in West Wilmington Walking from her home on Bayard Ave down to St. Thomas' school at 4th and Bayard Streets A delighted child enjoying the surf with her family for many summers at Cape May A happy teenager glad to be attending and graduating from Padua Academy back when it was in the old public school building near St. Anthony's Church A University of Delaware student marking the start of her long association with Newark The owner of Exit on Main Street, a trendy little store that matched her impeccable style The funniest and nicest waitress at the Rusty Rudder as she saved to finish school at the University of Delaware and graduated with a degree in Interior Design. Happily using her professional skills for major clients such as Christiana Hospital and the University of Delaware as she worked for Brennans' Office Interiors and later other design firms in Philadelphia The most generous and loving aunt in the world giving nieces and nephews everything they could possibly want Always happy to host or attend all family gatherings, especially Christmas Eve dinner in her beautiful Old New Castle home A faithful daughter caring for the mother she loved so much in her home in Old New Castle A beautiful beaming bride attended by her sister and nieces as she married the love of her life Barry Kinnally on June 5th, 2010 A beautiful woman spending time in her Happy Place at the beach cottage she loved so much in Summertime Park, Fenwick Island, DE.
