Very saddened to hear of Diana's recent passing. I knew Diana and her two daughters--Brenda and Barbara--from Hancock Hall, many years ago. Diana was a lovely woman. Gentle, kind, soft spoken, and I always thought she was so pretty. Sending heartfelt condolences to all her loved ones.

I loved knowing Diana because my Mother her Aunt enjoyed taking me to visit her and also with her children who I grew up with. Diana also enjoyed having family picnics that my parents enjoyed taking me to. My Mother also enjoyed being in Florida with her during winter months years ago. I do hope happy memories will bring peace and harmony to the hearts and minds of her son and daughters. God Bless Diana.
Love, cousin Rose Marie Bouclier
