Sher took her last breath at 5:30 this morning. From both of us, thank you for all the kindness and support you've directed our way over the past several years as she fought on. I'll be forever grateful, as she was until the end..

Stay well yourself. Difficult times, yes, and hopefully soon the sadness you endure now will fade and the wonderful times you had together will prevail.

Alan, so very, very sorry for your loss. I only knew Di through your posts and her too-infrequent vocal turns, but I know she was something special. Wishing you peace as you mourn her passing and celebrate her life. Ron

Alan,
I'm sorry for your loss as well as the loss to your family and friends.
I also believe Di's passing is a loss to forum members. Di was a lovely singer.

Hi Alan. I'm so sorry to hear this news. It is never easy losing those we love. Although I only knew Di through the Users Showcase forum, I will never forget her. She was a wonderful person and a wonderful singer. I hope that life's burden eases for you as time passes and that you are able to celebrate all your good memories. Sending you and your family many healing thoughts, --Noel P.S. Right now, it's after midnight and I'm sitting here listening to the song that you and Di inspired me to write back in 2018. As you probably remember, this song came about as a result of my reading your and Di's comments on Users Showcase. From those comments, it was very clear to me that you loved and respected one another greatly. https://soundcloud.com/noel-adams/so-beautiful

Alan,
I too am sorry for your loss and truly feel your pain. May God bless her and watch over you.
I do not know you or Di and do not listen to the showcase. I seldom even visit here much any more. But today I will seek out your showcase songs and have a listen for my own admittedly selfish and personal reasons.
Again heart felt condolences
