I've only known Diane since February, 2018, when I started working at Meritus. She was a bright light in my day. She was always so helpful to me as I was learning my job. We quickly became friends. We shared many conversations and life experiences while doing our jobs. I consider it a great blessing to have known her. She will be missed. Prayers for comfort and peace for her family.
