April 7, 2007

When I wrote my most recent update email to you on April 4 i mentioned I felt that Diana & I were on a roller coaster ride that was gliding to a stop. I didn’t realize that the brakes would be slammed on.

Diana passed away this morning – Saturday April 7, 2007 at 9:30 AM. She was in no pain and passed away peacefully. It happened at our house and Diana’s Mom Mary, Diana’s brother David and his wife Pam and I were present. It is a gray, cold, dismal overcast rainy day in Houston today.

Final funeral arrangements are being made at this time. There will be a visitation and church service next week in Frisco, TX Details will follow in a subsequent email.

Please no flowers or gifts to our house or the funeral home. A Memorial Fund for the benefit of Lung Cancer Research has been established at MD Anderson, Houston TX in Diana’s name. Details will be in the next email.

In the meantime – if you need or want to contact us – here are the telephone numbers to reach me, Diana’s Mom Mary or Diana’s brother David.
