So sorry for your loss may you find peace and comfort in the words spoken at
2 Corinthians 1:3 & 4" Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God
So sorry to hear that Dianne had passed away. We attended school together many years ago.
Diane was always the nicest person. Neat and pretty all the time.
We went through school together.
Praying for your loss.
