Diana loved spending time with her family. She had a quiet strength and patience. Diana enjoyed crafts, painting, card making, crocheting, ceramics, and especially gift giving. Her thoughtfulness and love could be seen in every craft or gift she gave or made. As a family we cling to the many joyous moments with her and lean into hope. Hope allows us to know she is at peace, and in that we will receive peace and perseverance to continue on. We will miss you and we will see you again.
