Miss Nancy,
I have just heard of Diane's homecoming and wanted you to to know of the wonderful memories I have of you and Diane. She was a special young lady and I was privileged to be a part of her life so many years ago. I pray the Lord will comfort you during this time and that you can rest in the assurance that you will see each other in glory.

Dear Mark and family,
Diane was a good friend and an encourager a kind loving spirit that God allowed to be a blessing in my life. This was years ago at Freedom Baptist when all our children were little ones. I have thought of her and you often as these years passed us by and wished We had been able to enjoy being nearer thru all these years. You are in my prayers as you take these steps forward knowing that Diane has already made it home. We love you all.

Mark, Rebecca, and Elizabeth, Dianne was pure sunshine. It's been a few years but there are some people you can never forget. She brought joy and laughter to everyone she met. Watching her in the choir there was no doubt of her worship of her Savior. There was never a time when y'all were together that it didn't look like you were having fun. We've prayed for you as you walk this road of missing her. You will certainly feel God's peace and presence and we hope you will be able to immediately recall all the joy she brought you. Our prayers and thoughts are with you all.

Diane, my beloved niece, will be sorely missed. I have many lifetime good memories. I was always so proud of her, and thankful for her wonderful family, and all of our family members. I praise God for our faithful, loving Christian family. I especially thank him for giving her such a wonderful husband, Mark, who cared for her so perfectly.
May God be with all of you and bless you with His tender love. I wish I could be at the funeral, but my health won't allow me to go. I will be praying for all of you. I love you.

We are so very sorry for the passing of sweet Diane. As you know, she was the kind of person that would light up the room whenever she entered. She had such a gift of making people feel at ease and important. Our hearts break for the hole left in your precious family's lives, but we rejoice in the hope we have in Christ and Christ alone and the promise we will see her again.
