Kelly, Denis and family, please accept my heartfelt condolences, I was shocked a and saddened by the news of Diane’s passing. I first met Diane during Kelly’s ringette days and then we became work family at HR VAC where she was a pleasure to work with. DIane was a beautiful, compassionate, “glass half full” kind of lady. She was always there to lend a hand and always found the good side or solution to every situation. She spoke often of her family with love and pride. I am truly blessed to have known her. She will be missed. My thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

Denis and Family So sorry to hear of your loss of Diane. It was awhile ago, but it seems like yesterday that I met a girl that had a friend Diane and I had a friend Denis. After that it was Denis and Diane. We spent many hours and miles together on our good old 750 Honda’s. I will always remember Diane sitting with Denis leaning back on the sissy bar with that beautiful smile, no matter what the weather! Our deepest Condolences. May Diane Rest In Peace.

Diane’s passing is a huge loss for us all. Diane was such a strong woman who was always so positive. It came as such a shock to learn the cancer was back.

Denis, Kelly, Denis and families. My deepest condolences on the loss of Diane. Knowing Diane since Kelly and Michael played hockey together, to ending up at VAC and working with her and then for her, Diane was a very special person. I always said I wanted to grow up to be like her. She was always so positive, it didn’t matter the situation, she always found the good that was there. She was kind and considerate, a truly lovely person. I am happy to have ran into her at the Chip Truck in Englehart last summer, while she was out on the bike with Denis, and share some time with her. God bless and I hope you can find peace in the beautiful memories you have of Diane.

Kelli Kirkey, March 1, 2021

Denis and family, please accept our sincere condolences. I worked with Diane in HR and she was such a loving and compassionate person, with such a joy for life. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this trying time.

Candy and Garry, March 1, 2021

Please accept my most sincere condolences. I have beautiful memories that stand out of Diane; particularly at Kelly’s wedding and when she was planning Kelly’s baby shower. Diane seemed so maticulous. She was also an extremely generous individual. I remember her participating in a charity were she chose an individual in the developing world to support with a small loan. She’d invest say $50.00 to someone in the world’s poorest countries who are trying to build a better life for themselves. They would pay it back in installments and you could reinvest. The world would be a better place if there were more people like Diane. May she rest in peace.

Morgan Vine, March 1, 2021
