Diana and Don we're the most kind hearted people I've ever known. All the volunteer work they both did without very little Recognition was so greatly appreciated by so many. Diana's love for her kitties was priceless. The world has lost an amazing woman and She will be so greatly missed. But as she would say "Dad and I"s time here is done. They both are in heaven together taking care of all the kitties up there. Rest in peace Diana. Till we meet again.

I am very sorry to hear of Dianas death. Diana was such a dedicated animal advocate, who worked tirelessly with Don to rescue many animals, cats, in particular. I just know that Don, their cats, and all of the other animals Diana and Don rescued through many years have met her at the Rainbow Bridge, and tears of happiness have flowed. You are at total peace now, Diana.
Thank you for all the many animal lives you made better in your lifetime and even after with your chosen memorial.
