I was shocked to hear of Diane’s passing. Although I was her cousin, I was too young to remember her growning up; however, my mother grew very fond of her over the years and spoke highly of her. My condolences to her family, my thoughts and prayers will be with you all during this difficult time.

Howie & Charlotte Callahan
To Wilfred, who luckily for us, brought Diane to Port Mouton and to her four sons and their families:- you have all lost someone very special. Diane was a sensitive, kind, loving person who wasn’t afraid to let you know in her own unique way, exactly what was on her mind – mostly with a twinkle in her eye. She lived life to the fullest and even when her days became a struggle, she looked forward to her animals; visits from children and rides each night with Wilfred.
We will miss her and anyone who knew her will miss her. Our sincere condolences.
Chris & Brenda Potter
