It is days like these that I miss you more than ever. It is raining here in southern CA and it saddens me that I can't pick up the phone to call my BFF. But I smile at the thought that you are right here next to me - giving me the strength to get through ANYTHING as always. You are forever in my heart and will be with me always.
Love,
Your BFF, Kathi

It was an honor to know you, Dianne. We had fun at Baskin Robbins way back when! Although we didn't really keep in touch, you were thought about often! Kathi made sure to keep me informed! You will be missed by your family and friends, but, you are now at peace. God Bless you and your family. I know God will help them through this difficult time.

Rest in peace sweet Dianne.
God looked around His garden And found an empty place. He then looked down upon the earth and saw your sweet beautiful face. He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be awesome because He always takes the best. He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were hard to climb, so He closed your weary eyelids And whispered "Peace be thine". It broke our hearts to lose you But you didn't go alone, For part of us went with you The day God called you home.
With all our love & sympathy to the Garasky Family.
