Tommy:

We will all miss Diane terribly. Mother would have been SO proud of you if she could have observed your caretaking skills over the past few years while careing for Diane. You were the best and I hope you take comfort in knowing that you did so much to make her as comfortable as possible. Rhonda and Billy, aunts can sometimes sort of fill in for a missing Mom, so remember I'm here if ever you need me.

The funeral was just as Diane wanted it to be and I'm glad Connie and I were able to make it back in time to be with you and the family. Take care of yourself. Janice Kidwell Figura

To Diane's husband Tom and children and all the "Hash" family.

Remembering Diane as a teenager along with Nancy, Mother Betty and Father Kenny, and brother Greg Pleasant memories we share. Looking to our Lord for sustenance will help ease the pain and acceptance that Diane is in a much better home without trials and tribulations but in full peace. Martha McMahon.

Diane's last 3 days on earth will be etched in my mind and heart forever. Tom, you were lucky to have had her for the past 43 years. It has been a joy to have known her the past six. We will miss her dearly, but know she is in a better place. Although Mom's can't be replaced Bill and Rhonda, what wonderful memories you both share.

All My Love, Annie
