I have so many fond memories of Diane from Birthday parties, family gatherings, Halloween parties, family trips, and so on. But the one that sticks out the most would have to be a certain Halloween party when everyone there was so excited to see what Diane and Jim were going to come up with this year. You see every year Diane would never disappoint when it came to Halloween costumes. she was always the most creative when it came to her and Jim’s costumes. The annual Halloween parties were usually held in the garage and between eating, drinking beer, sitting by the fire, playing beer pong, playing cards, or dancing. This particular Halloween party everyone stopped what they were doing and noticed four figures in the distance walking up the long dark driveway. Everyone was trying to guess as they got closer up the driveway to the garage. All we could see were the spikes the chains, glitter, black leather, the faces were painted and there they were Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Peter Criss, and Ace Frehley. Dressed to a T Diane and the crew did NOT disappoint!! Diane was definitely the creative force behind every costume, and that night. She was def a member of Kiss!! That’s what kind of person she was never skimping on anything!! Diane helped my wife and I years ago babysitting our youngest when needed and how grateful we were and will always be. Diane will truly be missed and remembered as a loving, and caring woman who loved her family and friends!! And I have had the pleasure to call her both a friend and family!! Give Ryan our love Diane!! You will be missed by many!! Thank you for some great memories!! Our thoughts and prayers are with the family as they continue to grieve the loss of a wonderful woman.
