I was looking for an obit in the Examiner Enterprise for a friend of my father when I saw this about Diane. We were best friends even though we were two grades apart. We played at each others homes on Winding Way in everyday after school. I lived at 809; remember when her family built their house, and loved her parents. I wish I had known she was so close to me all this time. I have lived in Dallas since 1968 & Plano since 2004.
So many memories and I want you to know what a great friend she was to me as a teen. My deepest condolences, but fondest feelings. Bless you all!
