May you all be comforted by the knowledge of her eternal peace.

Over the past 2 days I have virtually watched all the services for Lady Di. She always greeted you with a hug and that great affectionate smile, She is such a sweetheart inside and out and I’m going to miss seeing her at VSU homecoming, CIAA and other events in the Richmond/ Petersburg area. Thank God for allowing me to know her. One thing for sure she was trooper and fought a good fight. Well done thy faithful servant, rest in heaven, you earned your wings. You were true angel on earth.
