I knew Diane during her younger days when she lived with Dave in Houston and in Nashville. I lived with them for a time in both places. She very always very friendly to me and my wife and she was a good friend as well. She cut my hair a few times and I remember playing with their first child when he was a baby. I loved to hang out with them and we shared a lot of fun times together. Dave and I would toss the football in their backyard or play basketball at a nearby court. We even had the adventure of moving from Houston to Nashville with our stuff in the same Uhaul truck and we lived together for a few months until we got settled there. Great memories. I am so sorry to hear about your loss and my dearest condolences to Dave and his family.

I didn't know Diane, but know she must have been an amazing person. I know her son Luke, and he is such a kind, polite, young man. I've worked with him since he was first out of school at Crystal Group. His Mom and Dad have done an amazing job and should be so proud! I am so sorry for your loss, and your family is in my prayers. God bless you all.

Diane was a very selfless woman. She was always willing to lend a hand or an ear to listen. Her pride and joy was her husband Dave and her boys Tyler and Luke. We spent a lot of the earlier years together. Chasing our boys around playing Kings Knights baseball, camping, cards, New Years Eve with friends and of course our date nights out with the guys going to supper. This lady was one of a kind and I will truly miss her smile and her giggle. Until we meet again Diane forever in my heart. Love Faye
