Your Thoughts  :   My deepest condolences. Diane was truly a remarkable person. She kept me on track and in control at the bank when she worked for me. I went back to college in the evenings during the early 1990's while working full time days. She helped me write all my papers and she joked about what we would do with our degree when I got it. She was so proud of her sons and grandson. Please remember her and know that I will remember her for the rest of my life.

I will and we all will miss her, but we know that she is our "Special Angel" in Heaven, and is looking over us everyday. God Bless
