Condolences & Tributes

Add A Condolence

I have loved you ever since I met you as a baby. We have laughed, danced, sang, cried and fussed as sisters do. I will miss your random texts, calls and pop-ups. I don't know how I will get over not hearing you call me "sis" in only the way that you could, seeing your beautiful face and smile, feeling your big heavy hugs and just you in general. My first baby and sister that always showed me complete love. I will love and support, LaChonda, Norman and Ashley and your grandmothers for as long the Lord allows. I will forever miss you. I love you. Until we meet again my sister. Love, Antonia "Tonia" Astin.

Dianne sorry this has happened to you we were friends and Dorm mates at Gwinnett College, you taught me a lot while we had our time out there. Unfornately we separated and haven't spoke since, but I'm saddened by this but will always embrace your silly goofy self. Much love~MiMi

Dianne will always be a part of my family. She has left mark on our lives that will live with us. You all have our sincerest condolences. ~Cherie Shipman & Family

We will miss seeing your smile and hearing your laugh! You were the life of the party and had such a kind soul. We will all miss you very much! Love, Your cousins The Green Family (Justin, April, Jailee & Amelia)

Little cousin you will truly be missed! I'm praying for your parents and little sister. I love you! Katie

Dianne you will be missed cousin sending prayers for my family and strength to get them through these trying times!

We the Robinson family send our condolences to your family during this time we want you to know that we love you all and that you all are always on our minds may God keep you doing this time. This is from Stephanie Robinson Helen Robinson Barbara Banks Cornell Robinson Chelsea Robinson Cornelius Robinson in Seneca Matthews we love you all and we're praying for you all during this time.

To Norman and LaChonda, my heart is broken to know that Dianne is no longer with us. You entrusted her to Carl and I to become godparents to her at her birth. We've seen her grow into a young intelligent, talented and loving young woman and have loved her as our own. God has summoned her to come to be with Him in His kingdom at a very young age. I didn't want her to leave right now, but it is not my will, but God's. I pray for both of you, Ashley and your entire family. Carl and I are here for you and may the Lord give you peace and comfort. We love you and will forever love Dianne! Her Godmother - Betty Mason

Dianne, I remember training you and you always had a smile. You will be missed. Rest in Peace.

Dianne I cannot believe you are gone. I will remember the laughs and how you poured your all into the youth.

Dianne, there will never be enough words to express the sadness I feel. You were such an inspirational, caring and selfless individual. You gave so much of yourself to others. I will truly miss your hugs, upbeat personality and friendly conversations. Miss you dearly. May the Lord carry your family through this difficult time. Jay.J

This still doesn't feel real, was just about to let you know I was back in town from school. Wasn't my real auntie but acted just like it. You'll forever be missed. Nothing but great times with you. Love you auntie. ~ Jacob Hall
