Anita Basich
Anyone who shared a friendship with Diane should feel lucky. I am proud to say, I was one of those lucky ones to have been blessed with that. I will always cherish every minute of the time spent with her & regret now & wish there had been more.
I was saddened to read of her passing but know she is happy & in a better place. Without a doubt she is smiling down on us with that ever present smile.
Our friendship went back many years ago & sadly with time & circumstances we lost contact. Some of our most happiest times were during the 1989 Centennial & the building & completion of the Tall Ships. My husband Bob was a Legislator at that time so she & I spent a lot of time together. She often was with Bob & I at many functions here in Aberdeen & at the State Capital. Being attractive & her fun loving personality always caught the attention of many.
If it wasn't for Diane, I would not have been educated on Truffles ! I had never heard of this mushroom. We shared many laughs on this one.
Her love of family, especially Dawn & Robby was never ending. She could talk about them for hours. Yes, she is in a happier place, but will be missed.
My love, heart & prayers go out to the family during this very difficult time. I am so happy she was in my life.....!
