To Diane's family,
I am someone who knew Diane in her younger years. I went to school with her and my oldest brother lived across the street from her when she was little. My family and I also know her family. I have not seen Diane in many years but have kept in touch with her on facebook. I know she has been through alot in the last year. I have prayed for her and now will continue to pray for her and her family. I know she in heaven now and is your guardian angel. I know she loved her family and God. Her priorities were in the right place. I am so glad she had a good life and was loved by so many. She was a great person. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. God be with you all and give you strength to get you through this hard time. I am glad I had a chance to know her. She is in a better place.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I am so very sorry for your loss. The minute I met Diana I immediately loved her. She was such a kind person and although I only was able to see her was when she was sick we had many late night talks. I can't express enough how deeply sad this makes me and how sorry I am for all of you. She will be missed, I hope you all find peace knowing she is now comfortable and in a better place.

Kevin, Bob, Rick & Family,
Words can't even begin to describe how sorry we are about the loss of Diane. She was always so full of life and fun to be around. We will continue to hold our memories of Diane close to our hearts, and continue to keep you all in our prayers. May she rest in peace.
