My precious mother has fought an incredible battle, but now the battle is coming to an end. Today, after speaking with mom's doctor, we have decided to not prolong her suffering in this life, with medical support. It was my mom's expressed wish that she not be kept alive by artificial means and we are honoring her wishes today.
We have been able to extend our heartfelt goodbyes today, and offer you the same opportunity. She will be moved to a room later today on 7SW, that provides more comfort for everyone as they wish to say goodbye. Though we do not know how much longer we have with her on this earth, we welcome you in joining us as we love her to God.

Terra and Family: I just do not know what to say. My heart aches for all of you. Your mother has overcome extreme hurtles and has been such an inspiration for all of us! I am praying for all of you and I pray that God will give you all the strength and comfort that you need at this time. We love you all! Please let us know if there is anything that you need.
Joe, Heather and Kids
PS Please tell her that we love her and that all of you are in our prayers.
I am so sorry to hear this. As with all of you, I wanted her to win her fight against this. BUT really she will win and will get her reward in Heaven. I am so sorry for your loss as I know you will miss her terribly. I understand the loss of a Mother who was wonderful like her. Hold on to those wonderful memories you have. You all are loved and cared about very much. You are in my thoughts and prayers. In Him, Cindy McGregor (East Point)
How I wish I was there to come hug Diana just one more time. We are in Houston visiting family...so I will write this and ask you to read it to her...."Still praying, and still believing" has been my message many times. And though it sounds strange...even now it is true. Still praying that you will be healed Diana, and still believing it will happen. Just not the way I would have liked. I believe that He will heal you, but now, dear one, it will be a face to face with Jesus healing. I will be celebrating your freedom from pain, and your wholeness, and your new face to face relationship with Him. I want you to know how much I admire you for the way you fought the battle, for your sweet ways, and your faith. What an inspiration you are to me!! The four o'clock hour will not pass without me continuing to think of you. And I will continue to pray for Rob and all your family...and especially for Terra (I know what a special relationship the two of you have). Thank you for allowing me the honor of calling you friend, the privilege of being your sister in Christ, and the joy of celebrating the Victory with you. Fly, Diana, fly!!
Blessings and Hugs!

My prayers are with you and your family as your mom flies into the Great Father's arms. She was a great woman and someone I admired. Loves and Hugs, Jenny Dunnell Gibbons
You are in my prayers. What a blessing to have a Christian wife and Mother. Apart for awhile, but together for eternity.

Diane was a beautiful person who brought joy to all who knew her. I wish I could be there to give her one last hug. I know God will welcome her with open arms and she will add beauty and love to heaven. I will always remember the good times I spent with her. Marilyn Spongberg

My prayers are for God's strength to be your strength as each of continues this journey.
Your faith and determination have been such an inspiration...I have been moved with deep humbleness and appreciation. May God's blessings surround you all.
