Diane welcomed me into her life, her heart,her home and her family . She has played a large role in my life for almost 30 years. I will miss my dear friend and pray for peace and comfort for her beautiful family. I will miss her everyday and remember her for always. She and I shared the best of times and the most difficult together.. I will miss her in my life, I will miss her laugh, friendship and positivity she always had. I am a better person for knowing Diane and will carry her with me always.
Much love to Stevie, Amy & Dave, Sara & Zack along with her 2 wonderful sisters , her in laws and nieces and nephews whom all loved and adored her.
I will miss you my friend, may you rest in peace now and be in the care of those who have gone before you. You were amazing Di!
