Another Angel

Last month I received shocking news that my sister in law, Dianna, passed away suddenly. Now I say she was more like a sister. Dianna & Mike started dating when they were in high school & I was 5 or 6. So, I really don't remember a time when she wasn't my sister. She was a special lady and we will miss her terribly. She was loving & caring, a great cook & a good friend I have so many of her recipes that I still use. Some of the ones I remember:
  • Tuna Noodle Casserole
  • Mexican Pizza
  • Chulupa
  • StuffedCupcakes and so many more.
Dianna kept an immaculate home, I don't remember anything out of place, it was welcoming for all. Dianna loved her children and when Grandchildren came along she just beamed. She loved being "Fufa"(I may not have spelled that right.) She visited every chance she & Mike could.

I remember being a terror at their house one day. Dianna did not like worms & I found a rubber one somewhere. I snuck into her apron pocket. Well, when she reached in her pocket & found it she screamed and the worm went flying. I got in trouble, but we laughed about it later.

This picture is of Dianna in September holding my new granddaughter, Karleigh Rose Gibson. I always knew I could call Dianna for anything! I called her right after Karleigh was born, she lived close to my son & daughter in law, and I asked her to visit & check on them, with us being far away in Tennessee. She would do anything for you.

Dianna has left a legacy of Love & Devotion to her family & friends. Dianna accepted the Lord not too many years ago and as Christians we know we will see her again.

So long, Sis

New Babies


Ok, on my way to work this morning I saw this cow that was laying on the ground in the field. It looked dead, then because it was cold I could see it's breath. Then I noticed a foot sticking out. (you get it, don't ya?) So I went to tell the rancher, thought she might be in distress. When I was back on my way to work ...this is what I saw. The calf was steaming, it was so new. This was a pretty cool. God is good!
