Mr. Sigel, Ellen, and Meridith,

I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know your wife and mother personally but it is plain to me how very loved she was. You have my deepest sympathies and will be in my thoughts.

With love,

I am sorry to hear of Diane's passing. She is at peace right now knowing how much she was loved before she passed away. Please take some comfort in knowing that she is no longer suffering. She was one of the kindest and caring people I have met. I always enjoyed her company at family gatherings at Gert's home (her sister in law who loved Diane like a sister). Bernie, Ellen, Matthew, Meredith, Richard and Gert, please each of you allow yourself to grieve. Then soon after, may the memories of her love for all of you fill your hearts and thoughts. Diane will always be missed and never forgotten since she was a very special person. My beloved mother (who I still cry for) passed away when I just turned 16, so I understand how difficult it is to lose a parent at a young age. Losing my beloved father last year also caused a lot of grief (and who I still miss), making me realize that it is never easy to lose a parent or loved one.

Although I only knew Diane for a short time, I miss her dearly. She was one of the kindest and most caring souls I have ever met. She always found the good in everyone she met and she was deeply loved. God Bless you Diane, you made the world around you a better place, and you will be greatly missed.
