Posted on: Monday, December 12, 2022We were so sad to hear of Diane’s passing. Our condolences are with all of her family. We first met Diane when she was teaching Highland dance from her home in Alcona and I have kept up our friendship since then through Guiding and Trefoil. She took on the challenge of trying to teach our son Craig, how to dance when he was little, even though he was legally blind. Her patience and easy going manner with him, was wonderful to see. She also taught our daughter Christine. Diane has been a good friend for over 45 years and I will miss her greatly.
