Diane will surely be missed. She was such an inspiration. Her faith and love where felt each time I met her. I will never forget how she always said "If no one told you they love you today, I do." I thank God for touching my life with Diane.
Dear Jim,
I saw you at Bill’s viewing on Wednesday, I am so sorry I just read about Diane. This is a sad time for AA. I will have fond memories of Diane in Thursday night Al-Anon meetings. I think She and Bill have probaby met in heaven and are attending the biggest AA meeting of them all. My prayers are with you at this sad time.
Fondly,
Linda Lackey
