Thoughts and prayers are going out to Diane’s family. We met her when my Mom and her sister Barb shared a room at Bethesda. Sadly after Barb died Diane still stop to see my Mom and she brought her gifts and desserts. She surely was a wonderful person and will be missed.

My sincerest sympathy to all of Diana’s family and many friends. Diana was a free spirit and I admired her. I remember her as a fun loving, independent career girl. She was very kind to me
when I was just a kid-sister of one of her many brothers-in-law. When we met again a couple years ago on the 4th of July with her sister, Janet (my beloved sister-in-law), it was a very happy reunion for us. I will always treasure that brief time we all shared. She was loved.
