Dianna worked in the business and also at Central Industries to help support the family while getting the business started. As the business grew so did her involvement, eventually leaving Central Industries to operate the business full time. She was not only deeply involved with the business but also with her children. She was actively involved with her children, and later grandchildren, in raising and showing horses for over 25 years. Her love and dedication to her family was never failing no matter the situation.

Pam and Randy,
I am so sorry for your loss. Just from Randy's post on FaceBook, she was a light that would light the room when she came in.
