I was never privileged to know Diane, but from what I read, she must have been a lovely person. I was a classmate of Don's, graduating class of 1947 Rochester High School. I wish to convey my condolences to Don and the children. May God comfort and bless you all.

Diane was a great neighbor. We really connected over music. I didn't know her long, but she was a true friend and made a great impression on me. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Dear Don and Family,
Diane and I were very good, close friends all through high school and before. I spent many days with Dwight, Hazel, Jack and Diane on the boat at Vermillion, and also was one of the girls that sang in her octette. So many happy times are counted in my memories of her and her family. I send you my deepest sympathy and the prayer that you will find comfort in your memories.
Much love, Howard and Jean (Dickson) Freer

Don, I am so very sorry! I was friends with Cousin Diane for 30 years and she was a real Angel on earth. They just didn't come any nicer than this dear lady.
