When Diana´s children were at Stone-Robinson Elementary School, she was very active at our school. She volunteered when needed and always displayed kindness. Diana and David raised three great children. I am so sorry for your loss. Please hold your memories close. Take good care of each other as you deal with your grief. May you find peace knowing she doesn´t have to battle illness anymore. You all now have a special guardian angel.
