Diana was a true blessing to meet through my workplace. She had a pleasant and uplifting spirit everytime I saw her despite the fact that she was fighting a fierce battle with cancer. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. May you find rest upon His arms during your time of grief.

Take comfort in knowing that our loving Heavenly Father is aware of every single tear that we shed. At Revelation 21:4, He reassure us that sickness, pain, and death will one day be of the past.

Judy, George, and family,
I offer my sympathy to you all for the loss of Diana. During her early teen years, Diana baby sat for my daughter and was great at that job. She was always so pleasant and helpful as the hostess at the Sage in Onley. I had missed her in recent months and learned that she was sick. I regret that I never made the connection of who she was until now. God bless you all. May recalling wonderful memories bring you comfort.

I met Diana at the owl many years ago along with her mom Judy. Always smiling and working hard to support herself at a young age. Years later she worked for me at Flounders. I don't think there is anyone that she didn't leave a smile on their face. She had the spirit of one of Gods truly finest. She will always be in my heart. I am sorry for your loss Ali, Judy, and family. Diana loved you all more than life itself.

Dear Phillips and Atkinson Families,
We are so sorry to hear about the distressing and sad news of Diana's passing. She was a lovely person, inside and out, whose smile and laughter would brighten any challenging day. We pray for healing of hearts, a peace that passes all understanding, and comfort for the whole family. In times of burdensome emotion and sadness, don't think of Diana as a part of your past, but instead think of her as part of your future. Uplifting you often in prayer.
