My sincere condolences to the Summerfield family.  I met Mrs. Summerfield through her daughter Michelle.  I cherish the memory of hearing her mother expressing her love to her children and grandchildren when leaving the house or  ending a telephone conversation.  Michelle's reply to her was "I love you too, Mama.  Peace be with you Mrs. Summerfield.

Diane was my best friend, Linda's, sister and lived directly across the street from us on Willow Street in Grand Prairie.  Even though she was 7 years older, we looked up to her for advice.  She loved driving carmen gia's and would take us for a ride when she came home for a visit.  We thought we were hot stuff riding in her convertable.  Diane will be missed but her memory will live on through her family and friends.  Our prayers are with her and her family.

In the words of Selena Foo, "Dianne was like a second Mom to me," I feel exactly the same way. She truly was a wonderful "Mom" and I loved her very much. Words cannot express my feelings at this time, but I just wanted you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope that you are able to find peace that only God can give and that her passing may be more than just a time of sorrow, but one of rejoicing because she is now in the presence of the One that matters most, Jesus Christ. I send my love to you all...

I am so sorry to learn of Dianne's passing.  She will be greatly missed.  Take comfort in knowing that she is with her Lord and Savior.  I have such fond memories of Dianne growing up.  She was like a second Mom to me.  You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.  Love Always, Selena Boggus Foo

I love you Dianne! We all feel a void in our hearts but rejoice knowing you are reunited with your mom & dad & brother! What a reunion! And knowing you are now face to face with our Lord Jesus Christ. Soak up all the beauty you are seeing now. And save us all a seat at the feast table! We will all be together again soon. My prayers are with Billy, Elizabeth, & Michelle. ~ Nancy Bell Sherman, cousin of Dianne
