I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. She was a wonderful person and in fact was like another mom to me when we were kids. Life has drawn us apart but, I think about you all when I drive past your house in Yorkshire. I have so many good memories growing up with you guys. My prayers are with you during these dificult times.

God Bless,

Diane was a dedicated volunteer in the Chaplaincy services department at Mount Carmel East as a Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist for almost 15 years. She enjoyed visiting the patients and had a great devotion to Jesus in the Eucharist and felt it was a wonderful privilege to bring him to our patients every week. Diane had the most awesome collection of reading glasses that she would wear when she was looking at her list in a myraid of colors and patterns which she called her "sassy grandma" collection. She was a person with a great heart and we will miss her. You are all held in our prayers. Chaplain Michelle Lemiesz, System Director, Chaplaincy Services Mount Carmel Health, Columbus, OH

Diane had a very gentle, caring soul and I will truly miss talking sports with her before choir practice every thursday evening. She loved the Buckeyes and kept close tabs on them.
She will be missed.
Please know that she and her family are in our hearts and prayers
