Ms. Romero was my 6th grade teacher at Tenaya Middle School. I'm 32 years old now but I still remember what a wonderful teacher she was when I was 11 years old. May she rest in peace.

I had the privilege of working with Diane Romero through fieldwork observation. I spent two semesters with her, and learned a great deal of what it means to be not only a great teacher, but a great person.
It is with much sorrow that I hear of this news. I pray blessings over her family. May God keep watch over your hearts from this hurt.

We met Diane at my sister's house, and noted that Diane had the most brillant smile that shined through her eyes and the warmth of her personality came through the moment you met her. Sometimes I wonder what God's big plan is when wonderful, kind people are taken from this Earth so young. Our deepest sympathies for the Romero's and Reid's.

September 27, 2010

I did not know Diane, but my daughter remembers her from Peterson and is in the same class with Joseph. Our family's deepest sympathies go to your family and prayers to her sons who will have a great deal of healing to do. God Bless you all.

My prayers are with the Romero family...especially her two sweet boys. I worked with her on and off for several years, and I was so excited to finally be in the same grade level with her. She was very helpful. I know how much she adored her 2 boys, and my heart breaks for them. God bless you! I am so very sorry.

Dear Diane, Who knew that the last time we talked would be the last time... the last time to see your beautiful face, your wise eyes, your big smile, your hands reaching out to welcome us? Who knew? Who knew that that one fateful day was your first day in Heaven... the first time to see God's beautiful face, His wise eyes, His big smile, His hands reaching out to welcome you? Who knew?

Your beautiful smile is the thing I remembered most about you. You are a smiling angel who will be watching over your family while you sit by Jesus' side. May your family and friends find comfort in their hearts knowing that they will see you again in the streets of Gold. God Bless and many prayers to your entire family. Keep smiling that beautiful smile from Heaven Diane and watch over your 2 angel boys and continue to light the way for them. They will need your guiding light and love as they go through this tragic ordeal. Peace be with the family. My heart is sad for them. God Bless.

Your time on earth was all too brief because I wanted you in my life forever. And although I really miss you, in my heart I know that you are safe in God's warm embrace. Still, countless times throughout the day I find myself remembering you. Although I cannot see or hear you, I know that you are with me. I'll feel you in the warmth of the sun glistening over a sandy beach. I'll see you in the brilliance of autumn leaves. You'll be beside me in the peacefulness of a gentle snowfall, and rejoice with me at the emergence of the first flowers of spring. I'm thankful for the times we shared and the priceless memories too; for those memories are a comfort now when I lovingly remember you.

My deepest condolences to Diane's family. Words cannot fully express the loss of such a wonderful, sweet and kind person. The void I feel in my heart is great. I can only imagine what her children, parents, siblings and other love ones are feeling. I pray that they are given strenghth and courage to carry on as Diane would want them to. Farewell my lovely friend, until we meet again. I will miss your smile and kind words. You will never be forgotten.

Diane, We don't realize the hearts that have been touched until it is too late. As a daughter, wife, mom, teacher, friend...you have influenced many. The thought of you not being around is so disturbing to me and my family, I can't imagine what your family is living. Know that the community is surrounding them with love and prayers and know that one day you will hold them in your arms again. Dianne, we miss you.

There are no words to express our heart felt sorrow and deepest sympathy to the entire family. Our love and prayers go out to Christopher & Joseph. You had a beautiful and extraordinary mother. We are grateful to have met Dee Dee and to consider you all family. The day Ian & Justine got married was a proud day for all of us. We shared our tears of joy in Hawaii & again we were proud Aunts when we shared our roles as sponsors for their church validation ceremony. Our family got bigger and better. We feel blessed to have known you Dee Dee and you will be truly missed. God Bless You and May You Rest in Peace. We know you will be Gavin's special Angel.

You will be missed but never forgotten,

My heart and prayers go out to the family for this tragic lose. Mrs. Romero made a wonderful impression on my son Alex Hobson as his 5th grade teacher. Alex currently is a senior at Merced High School and would visit Mrs. Romero from time to time at back to school night at Alan Peterson Elementary. They always had great conversations. Thank you, Diane for making such a positive impact on my son's education.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I did not know Mrs. Romero...and only knew of her passing from news reports. The world will be a lesser place with her passing. When a teacher is taken...everyone looses, not only the students. Teachers who love their jobs are rare...and it seems she was a rare beauty. God bless her family and friends.

Mrs. Romero was my sixth grade teacher at Tenaya middle school. She is one of a handful of teachers that has truly inspired me to become an educator myself. What has happened in our community is tragic. I think we all need to remember that life is short and that we need to always let the ones we love know how we feel. Mrs. Romero you will be truly missed!!

My first memories of you bring me back to high school. You were one of the first to welcome me and be my friend. Over the years we moved away but these recent years reconnected as if we were never apart. What a sweet soul. I will miss our chats! I will cherish every memory.

To the Reid and Romero family, may god be by your side and Diane on the other guiding every step. Such a beloved woman and she will be missed.

May God's will and glory help strengthen the sorrow of her loved ones and third graders. I don't know the family but just being a resident of Merced is enough to feel that she will be missed and leave an irreplaceable place among those who knew her. May justice be served too. Her story is felt through all Merced and will be remembered through our Central Valley. May God Bless Her in His Glory and her surviving family and friends.

Mrs. Romero was one of the few teachers I do remember in elementary. She was my 4th grade teacher, and one thing I remember till this day, about her class, was that I was very playful. But this one time when we were lining up for lunch, I got my finger crushed by a drawer near the door, and she attended to me quickly.
