Diane had a knack for turning something bad into something good. Call it a defense mechanism...she learned it at the age of 9 when her father died tragically. She rolled with the punches. She wasn't perfect, but who of us are? The important things was that she learned from her mistakes and never gave up on trying to see the cup half-full. Perhaps that's what endeared her to so many people - she'd get knocked down but she'd get right back up again. Yes, she was a fighter. But following a massive heart attack that created a domino-effect with other health issues, Diane's body couldn't keep up with the fight still left in her soul. She wanted to live. Her death was a shock to us all. Without life insurance, medical bills out the wazoo, along with filing errors as she tried to get assistance with Medicaid...there's no money. Diane was trying her best to make ends meet. That was kind of her lot in life...never quite catching a break...but always managing to see the good in a bad situation. That's our wish for her family - to be able to see the support of friends and community during this sad situation. If everyone chips in a little - a couple dollars here a twenty there - it wouldn't take long to give her a proper burial. As you ready your hearts for all the reasons you have to be thankful this season, think of these words, "There but for the grace of God, go I." Wouldn't it be cool to see an entire battalion of $5 anonymous gifts posted on this wall? It's amazing what a difference that would make - like a ripple effect - on someone down on their luck.
