I hope this reaches you, Eddie and Dianna. We were neighbors in the trailer park in the 80's. Lynn would watch my son Bobby and I would watch Dianna. She was a good friend and a help when I needed it. I miss you all but I am happy with Ken. I lost Bobby 2 yrs ago. They say he had a heart attach. We have to learn how to live without our loved ones. I wish you and Dianna well and peace. She will be forever missed. Jo Ann Parke, now Zilke.
