Diana's warmth and deep beauty was always impressive. I had the fortune to know her through my dear friend Teri and her "Auntie Diana" always made me feel welcome and *seen*. She was one of those unusual souls and I am so sad for all who will now have to hold her in their hearts instead of in their arms. My deepest condolences. She was special. xo Barb

I had hoped for many more visits but God gave us the gift of love even in our short time together. She didn’t hold anything back! I am so proud and thankful for the way she blessed me. Knowing her was pure joy and I feel her smiles from heaven. I hope everyone in her family does too.

Joe, Tom, Denise, and Paul.,. So hard to think we’ve lost our dear neighbor, Diana. Living next door to this delightful lady was always an adventure, a laugh, and a blessing! How fortunate we were to have happenstance drop us next to such an amazing lady who almost overnight became a dear friend. She is missed. Our hearts go out to her beautiful family.,. Much love!❤️

The loss of Diana has left a very large hole in our lives. She was the most positive and non judgmental person and always provided sound advice, words of encouragement, and unconditional love. Her smile lit up the room. We all adored her and memories of her will be cherished. Diana surrounded herself with Angels throughout her life; they were all over her house. I believe she’s now up there chatting away with those Angels over a cup of coffee. They are so lucky to have her company! Much love and sympathy for all who loved Diana…
