I moved to Cleveland in July 1995 and Diana was one of the first people I met and there was an immediate friendship. She was so much fun to be around and we would spend a lot of time laughing and just talking about everything while enjoying a glass of wine. Her character never changed she was always Diana

My sincere condolences to the Echols family. God Bless You. Dianna, it was only a short time in getting to know you; however, it seemed like I've known you much longer. Instantly, there was a connection filled with a true friendship. You'll be missed my sister, but I know that your infectious laughter and smile will always reign down on us. Luv ya! .
