What an amazingly sweet woman. Our loss is heaven's gain. She used to give my daughter a dollar or two every year because she knew her birthday was very close to Rhonda's. To the family, I am so sorry for the void she leaves here on earth; but she will always be with you in spirit.

Miss Diana, Miss Diana. I can truly say you will be missed. There was nothing more that made my day than your smile and your voice. There were days I had that were rough but the sight of you made things all better. Hearing you say "there's my girl, with all that hair" made everything turn around. I'm going to miss you and our salon days. You were funny and always happy!!! I'm thankful to have been blessed with your presence. My prayers are with you and your family!!! Rest easy Miss Diana! Kisses my lady!!

To the Family,
May God be with you now
As you face this time of grief,
May you know the comfort of the Lord
In your darkest hour of need
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear
Diane had the most cheerful spirit with a "forever" smile. Which will remain "forever" in our hearts! Love you Diane!

To the family and friends of Diane. My condolences to you all, and may God's blessings be upon each of you during this time of sorrow. I had the wonderful opportunity to be Diane's homecare nurse for several months (before the assignment changed). She was such a delightful person who warmed my soul. She loved life, fun, her family, friends, and God. She spoke of her daughter, grandchildren, and other family members with passion. I could tell you all loved her, and she felt it. I enjoyed hearing about her fun retreats with you all and talking about the TV shows we both liked to watch. The world has lost a beautiful soul... Our solace is that we will see her again. Lovingly Submitted, LaTanya H. Cox, RN Team Leader, Simms Homecare and Behavioral Health Services.

Family of Diana Gentry-Crable-Dillard
What a wonderful fun person my cousin Diana was. Full of vigor and you knew when she smile. I am going to see tremendously. She took the place of when my brother Bobby pass in 2005. The joy of having her as my family member, but as a friend, good listener and a cheerleader in my corner in everything I did. The music especially and all the good eating places. Sad to have to let you go, knowing you are in a much better place.
Remembering you always.
Your Cousin

My deepest sympathy to the family of Diana. As a former Linden McKinley Panther, there is no doubt that she was one of the most beautiful teenagers that ever walked the halls of our school. In later years, we didn't see each other much but when we did we would always laugh and talk about the good times we shared. May God bless her family and give you strength during this difficult time.

Rhonda,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family on the loss of your mother. It was just a little while ago when she recognized me at First Watch after not seeing you all since our St. Augustine days. Keep all your memories close to your heart and remember that beautiful smile that your mom always had, and let God guide you through this very difficult time.

Her beautiful smile will never be forgotten. I will never forget our sister-girl talk the day of my high school graduation (June 1990). You had a style that was truly your own that made you an absolute delight. I will be reminded to be a leader and not a follower.
You will be missed!

To my favorite Aunt, even thought God said it was time and he knew your work here had been done, the selfish part of me feels it was too soon but the Christian part of me knows you are safe and in his arms! I learned a lot from you and we shared great times together! I have so many memories that will live on....now that you are in heaven with my mom and my Yetta and aunt Maude I have a full circle of powerful angels watching over me! I will miss you but never forget you! Ms. Diva
