Dear Barry ,Pam ,Beth and family, You are in our hearts , thoughts and prayers. We loved our Dian. We will always remember our fun and shared family events throughout our younger years and up to now. Tom and I witnessed the marriage of Barry and Dian in Folkston,Georgia, on a cold February day dressed in our mini skirts standing before a justice of the peace who united them as one. Our thanks go to Dian for marrying Barry. Barry and Tom have been best friends for 83 years and will continue being so. Her sense of humor,life philosophy,love of her family, patience, courage, and deep faith will not be forgotten. Always remember how much she loved all of you and how proud she was of all of you. We will miss her. Tom and Karen
