We will really miss Diane! She brought a warmth, love, and energy to all her interactions. She hosted us in her home one day while Richard and Roger were chopping wood, making us a delicious lunch, while we got warm by the stove. It's unusual for me to completely unwind, but with Diane and her hospitality, it was more than possible!
Another amazing set of memories were three different camping trips that Diane and Roger arranged for us. We were very inexperienced but Diane and Roger did everything for us and made us feel so very much at home in the out-of-doors, which was quite a feat!
We will miss everything about Diane, especially her lively faith in the Lord and her love for others. We wish to offer Roger, all their children, and all their grandchildren and extended family members and friends our deepest condolences. She was taken from us much too early and she leaves behind a hole in our hearts. Nonetheless, we know she is walking with her Lord on streets of gold, in perfect health, in perfect peace, and in perfect bliss. We already miss you, Diane, but we look forward to our reunion with you in the not-too-distant future!

Diane was always a joy to have along on a dive trip to the Mendocino Coast. She seemed to love it up there - I'll not forget her laugh and the sparkle in her eyes enjoying life with family and friends.
