Dear Don and all the Lockhart family, We send you our deepest sympathy in the passing of Diane. Diane was such a hard and faithful worker in the life of our church, very capable, very generous with her time. She was strong and brave through her many health challenges and we know that she is now at peace. She was a loving and loved wife, mother, and grandmother. She will be greatly missed. We send you our love and sympathy through these sad days. May God bless you and comfort you all. Pat and Richard Poole

Don, Marianne, Robert and Laura. I am so very sorry that Diane has passed. Such a great lady and so loved by all who knew her. Diane, her sisters, our cousin Geri and I were all born within a 3-year period and spent a lot of time together as kids. My brothers and I, the farm kids, loved going into town at Halloween to trick or treat with our cousins, and they loved visiting the farm, especially (Diane once told me) because our Mom bought us chocolate milk and their Mom didn’t. In later years when Diane and I both lived in London, we lived next door to each other. On one occasion an ice storm knocked out the power in London and Diane, my roommate and I spent a memorable night wearing coats, huddling under blankets with just one little candle for light! I loved Diane … her sense of humor and fun made each time spent with her a special occasion. It has been a long time since we have seen each other but I will miss just knowing she is there. My heartfelt condolences to each of you. God be with you and surround you with His love, His courage, His peace and the comfort you are needing right now.

I’m sorry to hear of our former Pineridge neighbour’s passing. While I have been mostly away from the neighbourhood for the past 20 years, I remember with fondness our friendly neighbour interactions. On behalf of my family, Kent, Tim and Ruth, I extend our deepest sympathies to Don, Robert and Marianne. Diane was a wonderful neighbour who spent much time volunteering. May you, her family be comforted by your memories of a very fine wife and mother.
