Karen Diane Smith

Diane was like a surrogate mom to me for many years, especially throughout my tough teen years and difficulties with my own parents. She was always a kind, empathetic person to come to, and was the "fun mom" I needed sometimes. I will always remember our shared love of The Beatles and her getting me into Toto, as well. She was just so fun and cool and nice to be around. She will be sorely missed. I hope that maybe she'll also come around and check over me sometime, in spirit too. It would be welcomed. Thanks for all the years and memories, mom.
