Going to miss her terribly. There was never a trip to the office that was just business. It was always a visit with a friend. She'd never let you go without eating a cookie or a piece of cake from Millie's while we talked about Poirot movies and episodes. And she'd always insist I take some home for Karen. Goodbye, Di. Rest in peace.

I met Diana through the Majestic Theater over 10 years ago. I always enjoyed talking to her and she always made me laugh. She was a great person and may she now be reunited with her beloved husband. My sympathy to her siblings and to the McGeever family.
