I met Diane when I worked at Sunset Haven many many years ago. She treated me from the first time I met her like she always knew me. Such a kind and beautiful soul.

Bill, Sonya, and Family,
My deepest condolences to you all. Sis. Diane was a dear, thoughtful person who always treated me with such kindness. I have great memories of being received into your home, sharing laughs, and always leaving with jars of her delicious chow!
I grieve this loss with you and pray that God comfort your hearts and give you peace, even as she rests in peace. She was indeed one of God's faithful servants.

Dear Bill, Sonya and Families
It saddens me to hear of Diane’s passing, another light went out on earth.
Where do I begin to tell you how much Diane was part of my life for so many years. Even thought she was my cousin she was more like an older sister, with her ever smiling face present in our home.
Diane was unique among people, for she was so very kind and compassionate. Diane could always be counted on for helping others, sharing her time and lending an ear to listen. It seemed she never had a harsh word when speaking of others instead an understanding heart.
She always arrive with a little something to share, especially her preserves. Asking for her help was never anything Diane had to consider for she just did it.
I am glad she is not suffering in this world anymore, she had enough of that in her life.
I want to imagine Diane in heaven with her family with no infirmities.
God has blessed me with her her in my life, now it’s Diane’s turn to receive her Blessings in heaven.
Remembering you in prayer
Ray Paris

So very sorry to here of the passing of Diane. She was truly an amazing person. I always visited her in early spring and we would talk about the old days and friends and family. She will be missed. Rest in love and peace Diane. One day I even had the privilege of setting with her while Bill ran an errant. We had a great chat about the old days until she felt too tired to talk. I will miss you Diane. Rhonda

God of the women who answered your call,
Trusting your promises, giving their all,
Women like Sarah and Hannah and Ruth —
Give us their courage to live in your truth.
God of the women who walked Jesus' Way,
Giving their resources, learning to pray,
Mary, Joanna, Susanna, and more —
May we give freely as they did before.
God of the women long put to the test,
Left out of stories, forgotten, oppressed,
Quietly asking: "Who smiled at my birth?" —
In Jesus' dying you show us our worth.
God of the women who ran from the tomb,
Prayed with the others in that upper room,
Then felt your Spirit on Pentecost Day —
May we so gladly proclaim you today.
O God of Phoebe and ministers all,
May we be joyful in answering your call.
Give us the strength of your Spirit so near
That we may share in your ministry here.

Bill, Sonya, Foster and Family. Like so many our thoughts, emotions and memories of Di are running through our heads today as I remember Di and the cousin she was to many of us. I will never forget her laughter and humour we shared together over the years. I am so glad I was able to visit with her this past summer, and even though she may not have been that well, she deeply tried to assure me she was, that's our Diane, always caring for someone else's feelings. Di was, and always will be remembered for she, like Aunt Mia, cared for others. Rest in Peace Di, for you surley deserve it.
A GREAT SOUL
A Great Soul serves everyone,
All the time.
A great Soul Never Dies
It brings us together,
Again and Again.

What a wonderful woman, she will be missed by many. My fondest memory will always be her making me sneak a half eaten hamburger and about 6 cookies in my pocket on the way out of the door, so Bill wouldn’t be upset she didn’t eat. Then you can imagine his confusion and surprise when she said she ate it all that fast. Condolences to Diane’s family and friends.
