I would just like to express my sympathy and prayers for Diane's family in her passing.  Wow we have lost so many of our classmates.  May they rest in eternal peace and happiness.

I had the opportunity and honor to attend Diane's Mass of Christian Burial this morning at St. Angela Merici Parish in Youngstown. Father Peters mentioned during the homily that Diane should be remembered most for her service and generosity. She labored tirelessly for the newly merged Church ( Immaculate Conception merged with Sacred Heart ) working the soup kitchen, bingo and as an Eucharistic Minister. She extended her love unconditionally to her family and friends. He stated that she was a fighter and wanted to make the retreat this Spring. I will always remember our primary years at Immaculate Conception School and may we all remember her message of faith. There is a special place in Heaven for the East Siders. Rest in Peace........

My sympathy to Diane's family and friends on her recent passing. It seems that she had a large number of people sharing her life with her.  I'm so sorry that she is no longer here for them.  It sounds as if she did much good for those whom she encountered along the way.
