Unfortunately I never had the chance to meet Dianna. By the stories told from Tom and having the opportunity to meet Chad she had the most honorable and meaningful impact on an incredible family and friend base. Tom Villers is one of the best friends and men I know. Well done Dianna and thank you for the blessing in my life! Your legacy lives and has a strong, blissful presence in many lives! God bless you on your journey! Someday we’ll meet in a different place and I can’t wait to hear your stories!
