I have only spoken to Diana. I work for her Insurance agent. From all the times we have spoken I always remember telling myself "wow, what a strong woman." She was so full of life and stories. I enjoyed talking with her. It saddens me so much to know that I will not be getting those phone calls anymore. To her loving children and Mr. Richey stay strong. Heaven has gained an amazing Angel.

So very sorry to hear of Diana's passing. Our friendship with Diana and Glenn goes way back to our Arena bowling days. Our sincere sympathy is extended to all of Diana's family.
