Not sure what to say?

It was such a gift to know Diane. She inspired me both personally and professionally to go after what's important in a positive and thoughtful manner. She was a great support to me while I attended school in Southern California and I felt so fortunate that I got some career advice from the best. She seemed to master all aspects of life, except maybe how to bring a delicious picnic into the Hollywood Bowl, and will be sorely missed. Thanks for the memories.

Not only did Diane light up any room she entered with her beautiful smile and sparking blue eyes, but she also lit up the people who were fortunate enough to spend time with her with her caring and loving spirit. I'm one of the lucky ones who got to know Diane for many years, since we met at Cal as college freshmen. Being with Diane was always a positive, fun-filled experience that left me feeling uplifted. No matter how many demands she had on her time, she was the best listener ever and...

I worked with Diane in the LA office early in her career and I was so proud to see all of her accomplishments. I remember her telling me I was setting a bad example for those behind me as a working mother because I was trying to do it all. Diane ended up doing it so much better than I ever thought to. She was a bright star and will be greatly missed in this universe.
My heart goes out to you, Brian, and your lovely daughters. They will be so inspired by the legacy their mother gave them.

Diane-the people you worked with were obviously inspired by your talent and professionalism. To us, you were the beauty with the ready smile who kept Brian on his toes. We would have liked the professional Diane, but we LOVED the lady who brought zero attitude and a huge heart back East to visit year after year. We will toast you regularly at our dinner table, and when the time is right, our reunion will test the patience of the angels. Your wonderful family is living proof that your goodness...

You have my deepest sympathy. May the God of loyal love comfort the family during your time of sorrow. Psalm 119:76

Brian and Family
I just wanted to let you know that Diane was a huge positive influence on my career and choices that I made at Deloitte. Her guidance and advice is the reason, I was able to see the possible in terms of balancing career and family. She was a very real example of how to find that balance between family and career. She was always there when I needed a word of advice and encouragement. I will miss her.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Brian I will keep you and your family in my prayer as I did Dianne., however she is in a better place no more pain in heaven looking down on you and saying Brian I will always love you and for now I am resting .
