Diedra Ann Auci Bradshaw

Correction to my entry - i´m not sure if it was a typo or my math, or maybe because it feels like less time and it´s hard to believe that it´s been 15 years (not 11.). I miss my friend just as much. Paula

Di, 11 years with you gracing heaven, but still remember your wonderful friendship and the impact you had here.

Happy Birthday dear sweet Di, Miss you and always will. You were an angel on earth and you now grace Heaven, watching over us. Can´t believe it´s been so long. But your thoughtfulness and my memories remain like yesterday.

Deidra's memory will be honored this Sunday 8/11/24 for Alpha Gamma Delta, Delta Eta Chapter. I will attend the ceremony online along with Toni Wilson Hay. We loved Deidra very much and remember her kindness, beauty, and smile. She was among the first of us in the colony to earn a PhD and I admired her for that very much. Deidra was in the middle, 3rd row up (see chapter photo).

Di, miss you still. Thank you for sharing your vibrant smile and heart, honesty and kindness with the world...it all is still so present with me today. Thank you for all the beautiful differences you made in the world. pv

I miss you Di. I didn't make it this year to visit on March 14th...I was in NV with my mom. She had got sick. she went to be with you and family members 5 days later. It's funny, but there were times I would call her and tell her I would have called you about whatever it was I was calling...I remember turning around after your celebration of life and seeing my mom and stepdad there...my mom knew how important you are to me and she appreciated you too. what I wouldn't give right now to...

Hi Di,
I haven't written here because it is almost harder than thinking of you and talking to you in my heart and head everyday. I'm going to want a written response and I'm not going to get it and that is the hardest part...so you will just have to remind me in one of your many other ways that you are still here with me :) When I hear your voice in my head (and right there you're making a comment that maybe I should get that checked or at least not tell anyone I hear voices in my head...
