So sorry for your loss. Have known Diane since high school years. Haven´t had recent contact. I remember all you kids, Wendell and I spent lots of time with the Dreiser´s, all good memories. She was always fun and we were good friends.I´m pretty sure she helped me color my hair for the first time. Good times. May she Rest In Peace, leaving her family with many memories.
