To the family of Daine, I meet Daine some years ago when she decided to sale Avon and I signed her up on the spot, she was a very loving and caring person always had a smile on her face and a kind word to everyone, I will miss her even though I haven't seen her in a few months but, I will always remember that beautiful smile. To the family keep your head up and just remember all the good things about her. Gone but not forgotten.

To the Family, Diane and I ushered together on the 3rd Sunday (Usher Board #1). I will miss her coming to church with that smile on her face. She always kept you laughing about something and always had candy, bubble gum and mints to pass around. She loved her family and always showed off the new pictures of her babies. Diane loved some clothes and always was smelling good. The joy of having her as a member of our Usher Board #1 was thrilling, and I will always treasure the memories. My prayers are with all of you because Diane will surely be missed.
