I had the privilege of working with Diane at Ramsey Human Services. She was so kind to everyone. She was quiet. Except when it came to making sure clients were cared for, she would speak up and make sure she was heard. When a client in the Family Division needed help, most times Diane would take it upon herself to work the case and issue benefits herself. She was one of a kind! She wasn't afraid to try anything. I remember her saying she was going to learn to play the accordion and later at a retirement party there she was playing her accordion. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers to her family.

Diane took accordion lessons from my father, Ed, and performed with the accordion club where I met her. Through the years my husband and I have enjoyed having Diane visiting us in California. We will miss her very much. She loved her family immensely and unconditionally above all. I know you all will miss her, too!

What a shock! She´s been on my mind a lot latel. I planned to call this week, this is what happens when you put things off. Diane´s family and mine were good friends for years, she was so kind and caring. We reconnected our friendship in the early `70´s when I started at RCHS. In fact, `88 she and Helen S. Gave me a Wedding Shower at diane´s home. Tons of memories. I did not know her sister Carole had passed. Great family, I went to send hugs and prayers to the family, especially her Mom, Shirley, if she´s still with us.

Diane was the kindest person. She helped me many times with medical questions I seemed to have so often. She was never too busy. I liked her very much and I send my condolences to her family who I know she loved so much.

I am sad to get this news. I knew Diane for a long time while I worked at human services in Ramsey county. She is the nice supervisor and everyone love to work with her.

Diane was a wonderful gift to many, many people. Her active compassion and love for all her family was exceptional. Diane's life really mattered and made a deeply meaningful difference. Thank you Diane. You will be deeply missed.
