Dear Mike, Michaela and Family:
So very sorry for you all having such a great loss. Diane was a precious Angel on this earth. She played a big part in my life along with you too Mike. You both were such special friends to Buck and I as we made a change in our life's. Diane was a good teacher in so many ways. She taught me how to become a member of Church and my sewing that I have finally gotten back to is such a special gift to me and I will always remember her for what she did for me. Love you all so much and pray that God grants you with all the peace and strength you need at this time and always. I know for certain he has a very special place for her in Heaven.
Love always,

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Mrs. Elson's family. My son Eli was in her class last year and I tried to express my sincerest appreciation to her for what a wonderful and caring teacher she had been to him. She loved each of her students; you could always see it in her smile and hear it in her words. Eli is very saddened to hear about her passing. She will be sincerely missed yet always remembered for being such a special person. Eli will never forget her; we will never forget her.
