There's no loss, you can't loose anything in life when you know where it's at.And Diane will always be with her family. For the amount of time we spend with our love ones it's just a blink of the eye when it comes to the big picture. The only thing that Diane has done, she has changed her address. So make her apart of you life Angelo and she'll be there when it's your time to cross over from the physical world. God bless you and your family.
