My sweet cousin Diana, there are no words that can express how you will be missed. Even though you have left, you are forever a bright light that does not fade. Not all of us can see-the-light as you did. I can't say that i have always grasped the deeper meaning of your insights, but i loved how you were always true to that vision, and to your love of all things living. Your playful spirit and unique sense of humor was always a joy, and your kindness a blessing. Life is an adventure that does not end, n'est-ce pas ? Rest well in His loving embrace

To my dearest and wonderful Honey, I will always miss you and in my heart treasure the special memories of the great bond and love we had together. Diana had such a loving, giving and free spirited soul - especially in her concern care and love for all animals. Diana and I grew up together and even though we were cousins, she was much more of a sister to me. Though out we had so many memorable and fun times - traveling together in Europe, studying Italian one summer in Florence, and living together in New York and in Greece. We shared so good and not so good times, and we had many laughs with our similar quirky sense of humor. I am so grateful that I had the chance to see and visit Diana one last time this past August. Even though she was not at all well, I felt and hoped that in her beautiful soul she was still able to feel the love and connection we had. May her unique blessed soul and spirit rest in peace.

Heartbroken by the loss of one of my dearest and oldest friends. Driven by her heart, Diana was a brilliant force of nature, as someone who was like a sister to me, as an advocate for animals, and in her passion to make a difference in this world. Diana and I grew up together. My parents were Diana’s godparents. My mother was in Diana’s mother’s wedding, and Diana was in mine. We spent Christmas’ together, summers in Big Bear, and celebrated many birthdays and other happy occasions with our families and friends. I will always treasure the many memories and hold them deep in my heart. Diana was a blessing and will be truly missed. “Every blade in the field, every leaf in the forest, lays down its life in its season as beautifully as it was taken up” ~ Henry David Thoreau Memory Eternal 💜

Dear Diana, my lovely friend, When I first saw your email address so many years ago, it took me a while to figure out your message. This attests to the fact that, though you used to refer to me as a Renaissance Man, I'm truly quite dense. "Cthelyt" is and has been engraved into the banks of my memory, as you truly helped me to "see the light" in reganrds to the natural wonders of this world. Your love of nature and of animals was inspirational, infusing me with a deeper appreciation for what is truly important in this life. Your playful spirit lifted me and your beautiful gaze warmed me, as we, among other things, sometimes created havoc within our department at LACC. May the light of this candle reach up to you in the heavens and reveal to you that, though no longer sharing the same dimension, you are locked away in a corner of my heart 'til we meet up again, hopefully to create a bit of havoc in Heaven. You used to address me as "Loveliness" or "Angel", which is what you are and have been to me. In a joyful ride full of wonders is how I imagine you now. Enjoy! And much love to you, my dearest of friends.
