Joe and Family,
My heartfelt condolances.
I wish I could be there for you, but I have work commitments, and I will see you in a couple weeks for Jennifer's wedding.
I can not imagine what you are going thru, but all I can offer is that you have to feel in your heart that Diane's work here was done, and God needed her somewhere else,
I does not help ease the pain, but at least she is in a better place. If you believe in a higer power, supreme being. God if you choose, then we shall be reunited with those we love in another place and time.
Love to all,
