It is still difficult to believe that Diane has left us and is watching from heaven. I will miss her wonderful long letters at Christmastime. She truly was loved by all. Especially those of us who worked with her at Shearson for so many years. She ALWAYS helped everyone without complaint. She never forgot anyone. Our lives are all better for having known her. My sincerest sympathy goes to Bobby and her family. Thank you for sharing Diane with all of us.

Diane was a great friend, I will miss her and her famously delicious rum balls. She is in a better place now.

I will miss her so much. I was so blessed to have had the privilege of having Diane for a friend and co-worker the past 20+ years. She was always there for you and I never ever heard her say an unkind word about anything or anyone. She is in 'Cowgirl' heaven riding the open range!

My deepest sympathies to Diane's family and friends (I know she has a kazillion of them). Her Rumball treats must continue! Send me the recipe and I'll gladly take them to Wells at Christmas. Diane, you made me laugh and you made me smile! Your ride into Heaven was of such roaring Grace, upon the back of your new favorite horse, Spirit. May your family and friends always keep you close at Heart, for this way, you are not gone, but, just waiting!
Love, Life, Laughter always!
Love, Peace, Joy, Faith
You are truly missed in person, but, are always in my Heart and your Spirit rides on! See you in Heaven one day!

My heart is broken, but my memory is filled with so many wonderful moments of Diane. I will miss her so much. I pray that comfort finds its way to her family.

I was deeply saddened and shocked to hear of Diane's passing. She was my first supervisor at Shearson/Lehman Mortgage when I started in 1984. She was one of the kindest and most empathetic women I have ever known. She also had a wonderful sense of humor and could always make me laugh. I know she had a wonderful life with her "Bobby"; she loved to tell us about the adventures they shared. My heart aches for his loss and for mine. I love you, Diane. May the Lord hold you in his loving arms now that you are with him in Heaven.
