Such a shock. Diana was the epitome of professionalism as well as a super cool lady. Her legacy here at the US Army JFK Special Warfare Center and School is still very much in evidence. The body of her work still lives on in other product. She was always willing to help others, even if she was already over committed to the max, mentoring to others who are now doing great things in other areas. I remember many nights when she would come back to work after working part time at a crafts store, burning the midnight oil to get projects out. Her sense of self and pride in her work guaranteed that no matter how short of suspense or how stressed she might be, anything with her name was always professional and polished. This deep sense of pride in her work, self and family glowed through her in all that she did and all with whom she encountered.
I am a better person for knowing her and will keep her in my prayers always.

We both worked closely with Diana for many years at USAJFKSWCS on Fort Bragg and continued to rely on her when she went to work for TRADOC. Her professionalism, enthusiasm, and knowledge were a great asset to the Army. She will be missed both as a friend and a talented colleague. You will be in our hearts during this difficult time.
