  1. Dianna was my best friend for 20 years. I’ve never known a kinder, sweeter, more loving, more caring, or more intelligent woman in my life. She has been my sister for all these years and I am so lucky to have known her. There will always be a void in my life – nothing can replace the close friendship we have shared. The world seems emptier without her. ~ Brenda Cobiella

  2. Although I didn’t know Dianna well, I am an aunt to her daughter in law and son. She was a kind women and I know her family will miss her greatly. ~ Tana Smith

  3. I met Dianna when doing death counseling for her beloved husband. Once she started work at NGA, I worked with her with our Native American Program. She provided great leadership within that group. Dianna is finally back with her beloved husband and family that preceded her in death. Dianna had such a sweet soul and will be sorely missed by many. ~ Sharon Morris
