Mike and I were so saddened to learn of Diane's passing!  She was a beautiful, kind, talented soul, and the world will be dimmer without her and that beautiful smile!
She and Mike were first cousins, and she and I go back to the early days of Myrtle School where we grew up together.  I still remember "Sweet Violets" that she, Cathy, and I sang in the talent show.
I am so sorry that our paths did not cross more after we grew up!
We send our love and prayers to all Diane's family!

Sorry to hear this news.  Diane was a special person and was our high school sweetheart of song, and I'll always remember her that way.  Peace and comfort to all her family.
