Diane E. Widlacki

Aunt Diane, I couldn’t have wished for a more perfect Godmother. You were somebody I always looked up to with great respect and admiration. From making me dance with you at weddings and social events to “don’t tell your mother I bought you firecrackers”, you had a fun and brilliant energetic streak I can only pray lives on in those of us left behind. It’s already been a year and the passing of time makes me realize how fleeting life is. Being all the way out on the West Coast it has been...

I'm sorry this came a little late. I didn't even know there was a Memorial Guest Book open, till just today.

Aunt Diane, what can I say? You were an amazing person. Full of spunk and pazsaz. Always energetic, always trying to bring on good cheer, even in hectic times. It's not going to be the same without you, though we all know, you're not truly gone. The passing from this world is only but for a faint glimpse of time. Though, I'm sure, it seems like eternity to most of us, they time...

It's taking me a year to write in this book. I still can't believe that I will never get to see you again. I know that you have made everyone's life a little brighter, and I am so thankful to God that I had you as an Aunt. You were the greatest person I have ever known and I thought that after a year has gone by, writing this would be easier, but it's not. I never liked "Good-Byes"..... especially forever good-byes.
I know how much you loved your family and I can't even imagine the...

Dear Bob & Family,

Diane was such a special person. She would call me regularly to ask about my eyes, and always had a few jokes to tell. She was always smiling and full of fun. I can't believe she's gone, so I can just imagine how devastated you all feel. Take one day at a time (or if need be, one minute at a time) and remember how very much she loved all of you.

Love,

Aunt Marie

Diane
My life will never be the same without you, but it will surely be much better because of you. You're the sister I never had and the very best friend anyone could ask for. Every day I think of something and reach for the phone to call you, and then I feel the emptiness. I can't imagine what My brother is going thru, or all your kids and grandkids, but I know that you will always be there watching over them. Our wonderful guardian angel. I will love you forever and one day we will be...

To the entire Widlacki Family, I am so sorry about Aunt Diane. It was such a shock to get that call from Mom. I've been thinking about times we shared with all of you up here and I had to smile. I remember so many times at Gram & Grampa's with Aunt Diane. She made the world a better place and all of us should be grateful that we were given such a gift in our lives. I wish I could express more but the words seem so small. It's hard right now on all of you but as time goes on you will remember...

Janet and Lisa,
I am so sorry for your loss. Mandie called me and let me know. We will never be the same without her.
I love you guys.

To the Widlacki family, I had only know your mom a short time. But in that time of taking care of your grandmother I came to rely on Diane's sense of humor and her smile to brighten my day. I always wondered how she managed to juggle so much in a short day. I have to say I never seen a happier person then Diane. Family was everything to her. It was a complete shock for me to be looking at the paper and see her name there. Just take things one day at a time and remember her for the viverent...

It has taken me sometime to write this only because I cannot seem to find the exact words to express how what I want to say. Diane was an "uxcetionally, unusally neat" women, definitely one in a million; as I have heard many, many people say over the past few days. She was a second mother to me and I am a better person for that, and not any time has passed or will pass that memories don't flood my mind of the Widlacki household and Diane as our center. I loved her and know that I love you all...
