Most of us have spent a little time next to Mom, enjoying her company, soaking up a bit of her warmth and passing along some of ours.
And crying. But right now, that can happen anytime, anywhere around here.
The light comes in through the windows and fills Mom's room. She and Dad had it painted yellow, with a white ceiling. It feels big and warm and comforting.

Beautiful.
Diane, as always you are very beautiful.
Diane, Jeff and family,
We have been intently following your family's journey here. The words are eloquent and moving and the pictures add a new and special dimension. Thank you for sharing.
Family, friends and writing have always been so much a part of Diane. How beautiful that your spirit, Diane, has moved your family to honor those qualities and bring them all together here to share with us.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you,
Lloyd and Susan
My gosh, what a beautiful woman and family. I would like to thank Aunt Di for being an amazing Auntie to my children. Ben, Kim and Jake tell Aunt Di stories with such fondness and humor. My heart breaks for the rest of you but I am sure there is a paradise beyond all this. Enjoy every moment you have. Love to all, Aunt Lin
As the sun shines here, I am picturing you, Diane, soaking up some of it there. My thoughts are always with you and it has been such a privilege and great fun to share moments with you through the years. Your family is just terrific. We all thank them for taking such great care.
Dear Val and Family,
What beautiful pictures you have posted! I have not met your mom or if I did it has been a very long time. What a beautiful woman! Now I know where your beauty, strength and humor come from. I just wanted to let you know that you all have been in my heart and thoughts so often as you journey through this momentous final phase of a life together. My heart morns your loss and celebrates your families graceful coming together to support your mom and each other during this transition. I am sending love your way.
Abbie
So lovely. The Love just shines through all of you!
