Diane was my first friend I met when I moved to Clearwater FL in 1982. We quickly became best friends and traveled through life's ups and downs as good friends would. I was enveloped by Diane's love and caring along with that of her wonderful family. How fortunate for me to have such a friend in my life.
Rian and Michael , I love you dearly and my heart hurts for you. You remember all the fun, cry til ya laugh times.
Thoughts and prayers are sent to family. Diane was such a joy to work with for so many years at cable company. Many of us were blessed to know her.
When Diane’s group moved to the BHN Wesley Chapel office it didn’t take long for her and I to become best pals. After the company changed hands and our department was let go we grew apart. That last day at Bright House was the last time I saw her. We talked several times but never again saw each other. I missed her so much. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.
Diane was my first and best friend on Duncan Ave when we moved to FL in 1963. We had lots of fun times hanging out in the neighborhood and I think I was at her house almost every day. Hanging out with her, Dick and my brother Joe and other kids in our neighborhood "gang" playing hide and seek, football in the ball fields, going to the beach are memories I cherish. She even met Arty at my wedding. We lost touch for many years as life took a different direction but so glad that we were able to reconnect several years ago, when I would come down to visit my mom (down the street), we would try to get together and catch up.
Diane, I am happy that you can finally rest in peace. My condolences to Dick and his family as well as your children and grandchildren. Be blessed in the memories.

Diane, gave much of her life. My brother would not have lived as long as he did if she had not given him to wonderful children…Michael & Rian. I always would laugh and say she put up with so much with Arty in the young years that I would not have as a spouse . Her love was never ending . And she did worry and take care of him through thick and thin . I can see her really loving ashes being spread together. I see much of Art and Diane in you both Rian and Michael and the legacy passed on to your children. Continue to love and be close to each other that’s what makes their lives worth so much .
Diane was always a worry wart, as her Uncle Doyl would say. We all loved teasing her, as she would ask us how long it would take to get somewhere and we would exaggerate it. This would “worry” her and we would all tease her. I never saw her in a bad mood, and I dearly loved her and will miss her for the rest of my life.
