Diana, I miss you and look forward to seeing you in Heaven. You made ISS a "fun"retreat for me during Planning  Period.

Our Sincere Condolences 


“He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Revelation 21:4

Lonell, we recognize that the love that Diana had for you is something that can never be taken away. No one can ever replace the amazing person that she was. Hold on to that and know that the memories are there with you always.

To the children and grandchildren, there is no love like a mother’s unconditional love and your Mom and grandmother was no exception. Diana was an amazing person and lived a remarkable life. May loving memories of her bring you comfort during this most difficult time

We have memories of Diana’s warm smile and loving demeanor. She will be missed but will live on in all the minds of those who had the privilege of knowing her.  We are sorry for your loss, and want you to know that we will be praying for strength, peace, and comfort for the entire family
Know that we are sharing in your sorrow and lifting you up in prayer. May you feel God’s comfort and grace all around you.

So, When Tomorrow starts without me
Do not think we’re apart
For every time you think of me
Remember I’m right here in your heart.

Praying for you peace and healing,
Wayne and Doris Morrison and
Your Virginia Friends



Diana! What a life well lived! I can only imagine our Lord saying," well done, my good and faithful servant!"

During the years at Eisenhower,Diana was always so willing to share in the laughter and the hard work: After school, ISS, special events. A stern warning would melt into a huge warm smile!

The love and strength of her family are her legacy. I know Diana has left us wonderful memories, and heaven is brighter because of her now.

I worked with Diana at Eisenhower for five years. She was one of the nicest people I know. She always made herself available to help when I needed her. Thank you Diana for always believing in me and for all of your words of encouragement. Your love for family and for your profession will always be remembered. Rest in the ever loving arms of Jesus my friend. Until I see you again.

Diana and I have worked at Eisenhower together for almost 20 years now and we would have some great conversations about gambling (which we both love) . Last year when Covid first hit we were both in Las Vegas and had plans to meet up and hang out for a bit. Well, that never happened because they shut the strip down. We both just laughed because only her and I could be somewhere like Vegas and the whole town shut down. There was probably a good reason we did not get to hang out that night. (We might get into trouble). Since I have known Diana she never has said my name correct. I would tell her, do you really know my name? She would laugh and say of course but my name for you is Lanie and it always will be so, when she  said Lanie I answered.  I will miss our crazy talks and her high fives. She was one of a kind and there will never be another. Diana, rest easy my friend and save me a spot next to you at the Casino. I love you!!!

Lonell, I was saddened to learn of the home going of your wife, Diana. My wife and I offer our condolences and prayers to you and your family during this difficult time. Be encouraged and know that God will give you strength and comfort to get through each day. Take comfort in Psalms 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help.
Love and Prayers 
Raymond and Kathy Ramsey

God has called you home and our hearts are breaking.  We will miss your calls and visits and the way you cared for all your extended family.  Rest my dear Sister-in-law.  We’ll hold tight to the memories until we see you again.  💙💙💙

My sincere condolences to The Martin Family.  Last school year, I met Martin...she and I were classroom neighbors.  We stood at our doors, talked and laughed, shared stories about our work day.  Such a pleasure to have met her...Martin is truly missed.  

Diana and I worked together for ten years. She was a  great woman. One night we went to bingo together, and I told Diana I never win anything. She said she had a feeling I’d win that night and I did, I finally won. Reflecting back at my friendship  Diana, thinking of all the good times and smiles. I won so much more than a bingo game
