My prayers are with Mrs. Diane's family that they are comforted during this time. I remember Daphne and Mrs. Diane visiting me in the hospital when I had my firstborn. She was such a nice lady and a cherished friend of my mom who left a wonderful legacy of love behind.

To the Woods Family:
May you know that "Lady Diane" has always spoke of her family and the tender loving care that the girls has always exhibited. She loved her husband, children and grands and would do anything for them and they would do anything for her. I will miss our conversations about "Bell Junior High" where we met and worked for a long time. Just remember all the good times that you shared with your mother "she was a funny" person who kept us laughing. May God give you guys the strength as you continue on.
