I found this e-mail from a couple a years ago - it was me telling a friend about my aunt

". . .I got to see my aunt from my dad's side of the family and she just makes everything better and she sees me for me, she talks to me like an adult, she doesn't think b/c she is older she is wiser and all knowing, she just knows me and how I am and we can sit and talk about everything and anything and I miss her to pieces when we have to leave. Getting closer to her and spending weekends with her at my grandparents house was also something I am very grateful for having the opportunity to do while I lived there. . ."

I miss you every day Aunt Diane. I love you so much! Thank you for all the wonderful memories, support and love you gave me.

Diane left us much too soon but we are all sure that she is in a better place with her creator. Diane was such a wonderful care-giver helping those that were sick and in need. God Bless you, Guy Bacci.
