I'm so sad to see that Diyan has passed away. She was indeed, the type of friend anyone would want to have. She & Ron were such a beautiful couple. I have many fond memories of the times I spent at their house long ago. I will always remember her generous spirit, her warm smile, her witty and wicked humor, and the twinkle in her eyes. I am so sorry. My deepest sympathies to her family. Vicki Scott

Leah & Family: Very fond memories of a sweet, gracious, vibrant soul who was always there with a smile. Her kindness was extended to everyone she could touch. Diyan, you were an inspiration to each and every person that came in contact with you. I will always remember your zest for life, fun personality, your smiling hugs, and spontanious wit. You will forever have a place in all our hearts.

Girlfriend,your were the best friend a girl could ever have.We met when my family moved right next door to you and it was trouble from there. We have laughed so hard over the things we did every time we met which wasn't often enough.We were roomys when you met Ron and came home and told me you were going to marry that boy.Your mission was accomplished and you loved him so much. We all loved Ron and when he passed a light in you went out and never lit again, He is waiting for you, of this I am sure. I know you are now at peace. Keep the gates open cause we'll all be there eventually. R.I.P. So sorry to your family for their great loss. You were one of a kind. Cheryl Heisler Wagner

Lady Di,
The last time I saw you, you had your feet in my pool...vodka & tonic in one hand, ciggie in the other. Your head was tilted back with your face in the sun, laughing as only you can. That image will be forever locked in my mind. We were going to get together again "soon" but it wasn't soon enough. Lesson learned. Rest well, my friend.

Diyan Dearest~To know you is to love you. Your love of life and your laughter was contagious. We, the lucky ones, who had the opportunity to share good times with you regularly, are so sad to loose you. We expected to have you so much longer and to have grown old together. With your passing, we are reminded how much we cherish our relatively short time together with our loved ones. Rest in Peace, my friend. We miss you so very much already. We will never forget you. Promise. ~Donna Reid O'Neil

Diyan- so much to say. Those of us that were so very lucky to have known you, will never be the same. The memories of my time spent with you and doc were some of the bestin my life. Your kindness, generosity and wicked sense of humour can never be duplicated. Tho, we grieve the passing of your spirit --- I know doc was standing at the gates with open arms....waiting for you. Rest in peace, Diyan. Til we meet again.....xo

I will always remember you as fun loving & full of life and energy. You were a wonderful friend to my Mom & Dad, and I thank you for helping to bring them together. I'll remember you as always ready for a good time, but also the most loyal friend to everyone, especially in the wonderful circle of Island Girls, a group that I am proud to be part of. Aunt Diyan, my friend, I will miss you. Love, Miss Mannie
