I'll always remember the first time I met Diane. She was maybe 6 or 7 years old. I fell in love with her that day. Her beautiful smile was contagious. It didn't take long until I realized that smile was a reflection of her heart. She was beautiful...inside and out. My heart goes out to Carol and Denise for this tragic loss. I love you Di...RIP
