Diane always delighted me when I saw her. She often lovingly referred to our height differences over a hug. I loved her humorous acceptance over things she couldn’t change. She was such a huge support and encouragement to me when I was to be President of our church women’s group. She had way more confidence in me than I did. I accepted the assignment on the condition that she would be my secretary…at a time she didn’t really want to because her life was pretty full and she’d done it for so long! But she agreed with a smile. She got me through the first 6 months and I will always be grateful for her selfless, instructive, loving service to my insecure heart. She taught me about boundaries! I will always treasure my association with Diane. Heaven has one spunky, kind-hearted angel who has touched many lives with her selfless service. I lovingly refer to her as the taxi angel. Many women have benefitted from her willingness to help get them to important appointments. I love you Diane! Til we meet again…

Our deepest condolences to your family. Thanks for loaning your mother to us in Independence. We learned to love and respect her and her joyful ways. She dearly loves her family. I’m sure, like you, we will miss her until we meet again.

I met Diane nine years ago although I felt I had known her my entire life. She has always been a loving example of patience, courage, service, and a loyal friend for those around her. I will miss her warm smile, hugs and the thoughtful advice she shared, which was always a welcomed gift. She enjoyed serving others in church and around her. And truly loved our savior Jesus Christ along with her children and family, of whom she spoke of often.
Diane will be greatly missed on earth. But I know she’s rejoicing with her Father in Heaven and watching over her family and friends, until they can be together again. Rest well dear friend.

Diane was always so full of love and had a beautiful smile for all around her! She reached out in the service with love to anyone who needed it. She truly followed Jesus Christ that way. I will miss her dearly! She made me feel important, happy and loved every time I saw her. I will miss her hugs and smiles! I look forward to seeing my dear friend again and getting one of those hugs in seeing that contagious smile. Until then I know heaven has a joyful angel watching over her family and loved ones! May you have peace and comfort at this time and always.

I will miss her so very much. We were visiting teaching companions almost the entire time she was here. We clicked instantly. She liked to tell people I was the senior companion because I was two days older. She was so special to so many people. The whole ward will feel her loss Rest in peace my dear friend till we meet again.

I met your mom when she moved to Independence and we just “clicked”. Over the ten plus years we have laughed, cried, counseled together, rejoiced with each other and wept for each other’s pain. We were more sisters than friends and I treasure each memory and am trying hard to remember more. My life will have a big hole until I join her . I have learned courage and patience (though some wouldn’t notice) and her example of service is a standard set high. I cherish the trips, the puzzles, the dinners out, the holidays spent together and my girls adopted her as grandma and she never came up short. Then there were the times she supported me in serving in my calling when she didn’t have too. We tackled some pretty big stuff.I hope each of you realize that different as you are she loved you. She knew your choices weren’t necessarily her choices for you BUT she never let that keep her heart from loving. That is a true parent. Love with all the ups and downs. Each of you were a unique treasure to her. Give yourself a hug for making her proud, because she was.
