to Elliot sometimes you faltered and sometimes you were amazing but your mom was there to see you through it all
to Brandi your mom loved talking about how proud she was for you and your kids, that you spent time with her and grandma garage selling and coming over to see her.

December 29, 2020 at 3:28 pmAunt Diana you will be missed! So many memories that I wanted to share with her kids. I remember growing up before she had kids going to her high school football games and thought this is awesome that my aunt wants to spend time with me instead of her friends. Then after she had her kids, just coming over spending time with her and her children! You will never be forgotten! Sending loves and prayers to all the family!

January 5, 2021 at 12:08 pmAunt Diana was always such a fun Aunt! There was never a time, even when things were bad, that she didn’t have a smile and a hug. She had a contagious smile and laugh that will never be forgotten.
I know that she loved with all her heart, especially her kids and grandkids. She will be sorely missed. I love you Aunt Diana, and thank you for always being there with that infectious smile.
