I just learned of Diane's passing today. Went to see her in Eureka as I did 6 years ago. I am in shock. She was so alive, friendly, never met a stranger. We worked together at the Union County Sheriff's Department years ago. I am so sad for here family she left behind. My heart goes out to them.

Our deepest sympathies to you, Diane's family and loved ones. Diane. Diane, the warm, kind and gentle, fun and loving, dignified, soulful spirit. A lady. We were like school-girls sharing fun, mischief and adventure when we worked (played) together as cave guides at Silver Dollar City. I will always see her kind, sweet smile, sparkling luminous eyes, soft, flowing hair and hear her delightful giggle! One could always feel the aura of love and caring that permeated every inch of space around her. She exuded it! We loved her! She was the kind of caring, supportive friend that one could confide in and share their innermost thoughts and feelings with. A sister. And I had the wonderful fortune of re-connecting with her since we had both moved to the Eureka Springs area. She had seen me on Spring Street, stopped the vehicle and jumped out to say "hello!" I was so pleasantly surprised to see her! Typical Diane! She will be dearly, dearly missed and definitely a loving soul that will live on....and.....on.........Love you Diane! Sue & Joe Reece

My heart goes out to you all. My mother and father new Diane and introduced her to me. I knew from the moment I met her that she was a unique woman. She had a smile like no other and a heart full of love. I have been missing her for quite some time now. She would regularly come to my mind. The memories of her smile and love, her ambition and fun-loving character. This is what I will remember when I think of Diane. I will forever feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to know this amazing woman. God give you strength and comfort throughout your lives . Adrienne~ words don't come easy but please now that you are loved and will be in my prayers daily... forever!

I met you as a co-worker and your heart was huge. I loved the way you cared for people. I got to know you as a friend when you came to our cabins and stayed. We had lots of fun times. My heart breaks at the thought of you being gone. I miss you and pray for those you left behind. Much love to you.

BIG Smiles, BIG Hugs, Big Fun, and Lots of Love is how I remember my beautiful, full-of-life Aunt Diane. You are SO missed and I will never forget the ways you touched my life, my daughter Lacey's life, and so many others. One day when we're all in heaven together, I promise to go on one of your LONG drives that I always tried to avoid. I love you! To my sweet family, we will love each other through this. Our God has a place for us in Heaven. Someday we'll all reunite again! xoxo
