To Diane's Family and Friends,
I heard about this tragedy just this morning and my heart, tears and prayers are with you. I unfortunately did not know Diane as well as you all did, but I talked to her everyday in the "job world". I hope I was her favorite "business" pest. My heart goes out to you all. I'll miss you Diane! Love, Heidi at Concept Food Brokers

Diane was and always will be one of my family members. We had alot of fun growing up. She put smiles on our faces and now she will be with other family members that have passed on and put smiles on their faces. Her life here on earth wasn't long enough but she has alot of great people that her soul has joined up with. I know she is in good hands and will watch over the rest of us and greet us with opened arms when our time comes.

Diane was always special to me when we were growing up. Her smiling face and loving ways will always be remembered. You continue to live in our hearts as you rejoice with our other family members who have joined the Kingdom of God.

For those who remain behind... We stand on the shore watching a ship as she nears the horizon. At the precise moment she passes from our vision, those on the other side of the horizon are treated to the majestic view of her presence. They are there to welcome her as she lands safely on the other shore.

If there is anything Brian and I can do, please let me know.
Love, Sher
