My sincerest condolences to you Gordon, Rachael, Alex and all of your family.
I am very grateful for the many special memories we have been privileged to enjoy with Diane. As I said at her 80th birthday "week" She had room for us all, in her heart.
The deeper bond Diane blessed us with after she and Wayne shared their weeks at the Rehab, we are very grateful for. That deeper friendship brought us many visits and calls that I believe provided us all, with mutual loving support.
Wayne was always very touched by Diane's kindness and support....and many prayers too. I feel your loss, Gordon. Hold on to your faith as you must go on.
I will be in to see you soon.
Sending condolences to all of Diane's family. May you each be consoled by your own special memories.
Love and hugs from Christine and family

My loving condolences to Rachael, Brian, Donald and Stuart. The loss of a mother and grandmother is painful but the joy of the person supersedes. I only met Diane once at the Unveiling of my Halifax sculpture and my memory is of her constant and brilliant smile. I have been kept up to date with Rachel’s posts on social media that show the inner and outer beauty of her wonderful mother Diane.

I remember Diane's first day of work at Eastern Light and Power in Sydney. She arrived looking beautiful, dressed smartly complete with white gloves, a proper lady. We became friends, often having lunch at her mother's house nearby. We were friends for 60 years; I will miss her and treasure those memories.

We recognised Diane as the beautiful, caring person she was, the first time we met her at Crichton Park School in 1998. Years later we (along with Rachael) toured Scottish cities, Highlands and Islands together and had an absolute blast. We will cherish those memories for a lifetime.
Our hearts go out to Gordon, Rachael, Alex and families. Diane will be missed by everyone who knew her.

My condolences to Rachel and Alex and their families. I had the pleasure of meeting your lovely mom in Shearwater Medical Clinic at a pot luck event. Her cooking skills were quite impressive and upon meeting your mom I could see the spark in her that I also saw in Rachel and Alex. God rest her soul and bless you and your families!

Sending heartfelt condolences to Diane's family. She was indeed a very special lady! She very quickly warmly included me into her family and always made me feel very welcome.
During these years of Covid, I did not see her very often but I am so grateful that I had a little visit with her and Gordon just this past Thanksgiving.
I am so happy that she played a part in my life and that she called me her friend.
May the good Lord bring you all comfort and peace.
With sympathy and hugs,

When I moved to Halifax in 1986 to train as a respiratory therapist Diane would have me over for Sunday dinners. She shared with me her apple crisp recipe and a treasured copy of Gone With the Wind. Thinking of her fondly...
