Read MoreI still remember so vividly her conducting and bright smile when we sang for the contemporary service at st. Mark church. She was a great comforter for my Choi family and loving grandma to my daughter, Joanne, while I was away.

I only knew Diane from church but when she smiled at me, I felt like she was my best friend. Now when I think of Diane I will smile , I can picture her trying to find a way to better the choir, but when their are so many Angelic voices, this becomes quite a challenge, If anyone can do it, it will be Diane. GO DIANE

Ken and I are so sorry to hear about your loss. As you know, it is tougher on us than on her because she is in a better place.
