I'll always remember Ann.
I know Mon and Dad had great times with you and her.
Thank you again for the photo of all four of you in the Alps, a lasting image of great friends. I treasure it.
My sincere sympathy to you, Jeffrey, Roger, Pamela and Lillian.

Ann's memory certainly will be cherished by all who knew her. While I only met her on few occasions, she always radiated warmth and humor. May God keep her and comfort her family.

I hadn't seen Mr. Diamond for a long number of years, but I'll always remember the stories of camping, canoeing and other outdoor activities that she enjoyed so much.

Mrs Diamond was always very kind to me on the times that I spent with her family during Thanksgiving. She was a real force of nature.
I will miss her. My prayers go out for her and her family at this sad time.

Almost 45 years ago, when Pam brought me home to meet her parents. I was a wreck. I entered the door, only to be welcomed by a beautiful woman with the warmest smile I ever saw. She immediately made me feel welcomed and comfortable. In the years that followed, I never heard her say a negative thing about anyone. She always showed true grace. I'm blessed to have had the chance to know her. I will always have her in my thoughts.

I was very fortunate to meet Mrs. Diamond and later to visit her at Glenmoor. Her gift to all who met her was living in the moment; she was thoughtful, humorous and practical. On one visit while bemoaning the fact that I could no longer button my coat (weight issue), Mrs. Diamond's advice cut to the chase, "move the button," she said. Characteristically she met all her challenges that way, decidedly, with grace and dignity, and the panache of a lovely flower worn over her left ear. I will miss her.
