Yesterday Diane died peacefully in her sleep after a long battle with cancer and all of its ugly side-effects, but also with the most exemplary support from Aubrey that I have ever seen. There are so many good things to say about Diane who was always happy, smiling and energetically ready to take on another project. But I will let others speak of her many attributes and just say that a mission trip is one of the best ways to get to know someone and I had the privilege of being with Diane on 3 mission trips. I pulled the photos of Diane from my galleries of those trips and created a photo gallery of “Mission Trip Diane” below.
Mission Trip Diane
And to see the photos of her in context of the mission trips, here are the three mission trip galleries that I pulled the above photos from . . .
- 2009 July — New Brunswick, Canada
- 2008 September — Prince Edward Island, Canada
- 2004 July — Reno, Nevada Mission Trip
And finally I may remember her most for her great enthusiasm for life and her faith and following of Jesus which she did always with enthusiasm and a smile and thus the great things she achieved in her life because of that enthusiasm . . .
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
I will always remembered Diane for her enthusiasm.
¡Pura Vida!
