Thank you Autumn.  A wonderful reflection of Diane and what she meant to her family and friends.  She will be missed and taken from us too soon.

 Thank you all for following Diane's story. I know that she loved each and everyone of us! I had the privilege of knowing her. She was the first person to reach out to me minutes after joining this foundation, in addition she was apart of our "Find Lucky" fundraiser in Jacksonville, Ar (see people making a difference an view pics of Diane, Im the blonde, lol). Come to find out, we attended elementary school together,  had the same style wig,  our sons are the same age and attend the same college and I was honored when I was asked to speak at her memorial! Wow, now tell me, that God didnt cross our paths on purpose! In closing, I am currently the Survivor Chair for the "Relay For Life" in Jacksonville and an advocate for breast cancer. We just received news that breast cancer funding has been cut in the state of Arkansas!!! Diane, We will see you again, when our work is through, until then, we will fight for YOU!
Your sister in Cancer and Christ,
Georgia

Georgia, thanks for checking in and being such a good friend to Diane.  Which picture is she in?  I had trouble figuring out where she was.  What a great fundraiser!

Georgia,

Thanks for updating us.  I truly believe paths are crossed and people are brought into our lives when we need them most. 

Is Diane in one of these pictures?
