Hopefully you see Jerry's haircuts and approve of them. I hope you do. I am so glad that he keeps coming to me. I am sure I speak for alot of people when I say how much you are missed. Just always shine down on your family to let them know you are watching over them. Miss you bunches!!!!!

Jerry, John and I want to offer our condolences for you loss. How terrible it is to lose your life partner. After reading the entries from others who knew Diane well, I am sure she is resting in the arms of her Heavenly Father at this moment. Deut. 33:27a Bless you and you family.

Jerry and Jodi, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Even though we knew the Lord's plan was to bring her home soon, there is still a void in our lives and in our hearts. I know this is the first Christmas without my Grandmother whom lived with me and I was just talking with her last night and saying how I missed her and wished she were here with me. I could hear her say, don't be wishing me back, I am happy, healthy and at peace right here in my Father's arms. I will see you again. As you are grieving now, perhaps you can have some peace knowing Diane is with her heavenly Father. She and I talked about her faith and how she knew without a doubt, when she left this world, she knew she would be with the Lord and be in total peace.

Jerry, Joe, Jodi, and the Duffy Boys:

I just don't even know where to begin. I have been doing Diane's hair for the last 5 years or so. Diane has always been one of my really good clients. I could always count on her to make me laugh. We would always share jokes with each other but it was mainly her because she had them all. Diane was one to always ask me how I was and how my husband, dogs and family were. I saw Diane twice a week to have her hair done. They always say hair dressers hear more about the clients family/life than anyone else. I enjoyed seeing Diane twice a week on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Diane loved her family very much.(husband,sons,daughter,in laws and grandchildren). I have soooo many memories of Diane. I will never forget was when she was going through everything she has and being there to make sure she always looked GREAT!!!! Diane never wanted anyone to see her in the hospital but I have to say I was honored when she called me and asked me to come do her hair while being in there. Probably the best memory I will have of her was when I permed her hair just a couple months ago. We would go round and round about doing it but I never fought with her and just did it. Diane was a strong willed woman and had so much power to do anything and everything. She fought so hard and so strong to hang on. I could go on and on forever about Diane. I will truely miss not going to her house and doing her hair and just seeing her in general.
Jerry,Diane loved you very MUCH, hang in there even though I know it is very hard. To Joe, the Duffy Boys, Jodi, and all the grandchildren Diane loved you guys very much. There will not be a day that goes by where I or you guys will not forget/think about her. If you ever need anything PLEASE, PLEASE call me.
Diane I will miss you very much and will think of you every day. I know you are in a good place now. I will continue to make sure that Jerry still gets his hair cut. I love ya and miss ya!!!

Love Diane's Favorite Hairstylist,
Stephanie
(or as she would call me Stephie)
