    However, I to was deeply saddened to hear about Diane’s passing and to know that she will truly be missed, but as mentioned in the obituary about her 50-year membership within the program of AA, I can truly say that she was there for me in my 41-years of sobriety when I first met her at the Alano Club in San Deigo, CA.
    So in closing, I would like to say, in sharing your sadness as you/we remember Diane. May happy memories of her bring us all comfort.

  18. I remember Aunt Diane as a beautiful and kind woman. Peggy and Patty, I pray that God’s peace which surpasses all understanding will saturate your mind and heart in this difficult time. I will continue to lift both of you up in prayer. Love you.
