I miss you so much. I can't believe that you have been gone for almost 11 years. I miss our daily talks on the phone. I miss your laughter and your spunkiness. I love you more than words can say.
This memorial website was created in the memory of our beloved mother, Diana Horsley-Nelson, 73, born on December 21, 1939 and passed away on April 28, 2013.
Diane was a kind and generous person. She always thought of others and loved her family beyond measure. She had the capacity to be spunky, feisty and funny all at the same time.
She was an extremely gifted artist and had a flair for design. The Christmas Caroller's that she made adorn many homes during the holidays. People have continued to special order them even though she no longer made them to sell in art shows.
Diana enjoyed art, scrapbooking, genealogy, email jokes, card games, soudoku and crossword puzzles. She was very competitive, so you had to be on your toes if you ever played a game with her. She loved to spend time with her family and friends.
She never met a catalog that she didn't like, and she was notorius for collecting magazines from every waiting room she visited. She couldn't pass up a good piece of chocolate and loved sweets. Her newest find was caramel gelato. Her favorite color was blue and she loved flowers and poems.
Diane was an entrepreneur. She wrote her own cookbook called "Diana's Fifity-Two Favorites" and sold it to companies with their logo on it. She had a cleaning service and a chocolate fountain company called Chocolate Perfection.
She was dynamic and her laughter was infectious. Diane was always there to offer advice, love and a safe place to talk.
We will miss her dearly yet know that her spirit will watch over each of us giving us strength and comfort always. We will remember her forever.
Please feel free to add photos and memories of our Mother.

I am honored that you were my Mom, and have so many wonderful memories of you.
On Heather’s wedding day, I could feel you all around me. Especially as we were all getting ready for the wedding. As I was lacing up Heather’s gown, I felt you with me. When we were walking her down the isle, you were right next to me.
When I was with Randy in Heather’s back yard, I know you were there letting your presence be known to both of us. Such a special moment....thank you.
I love you.
I miss you so very much Nana! Happy, happy birthday!

You would think that a year would heal part of the pain, but it is still there. I think of you every day. I love you Mom.
