Peggy Neau says:
My condolences! She was a great woman! I treasure the many conversations we had through the years and the great wisdom she shared. I only wish I would have made more time in life’s craziness to visit her often. She was an oasis of peace. They are rejoicing in heaven! She will be missed here but I have the assurance that some day we will dance the streets of heaven together rejoicing!

My deepest sympathy in the departure of Diane from this world to her glorious home in heaven.
For a couple of years, our paths crossed on Tuesday mornings when I delivered MOW. I always told her that she was one of a few Angels that I looked forward to seeing. She would be the one offering a positive outlook on this world sharing the Lord. I look forward to seeing her in heaven. I am sure that every person in her family has the same glorious outlook. Peace be with you all. Kathy B
