To Diane's Family, Diane was the librarian where I taught three, four and five year old children with special needs. We went once a week for "library time." Diane will always be remembered for her kindness and gentleness when interacting with the children and the support she gave me. In addition, I enjoyed seeing her and her sister at Sunday Madison Symphony concerts.
In Sympathy, Carol Kiemel
