I am so very sorry to hear of Dianne’s passing. She was a great neighbour from my days living on McVicar. I just ran into her last winter in Arizona and it was so good to see her and catch up. My deepest sympathy to the entire family.

To the family of Dianne (Burns) Wilson
I have a vivid memory of Dianne back in about 1974 when she was working at Seaforth Hospital. My daughter was critically ill and had to be transported Code 4 to London. As we were rushing out the door to get in the ambulance, Dianne approached me with tears in her eyes and said, “She will be ok Mrs. Rowland, she will be ok.”
I had taught Dianne and her brother some years before at St. James School and she knew/remembered me from there. I feel she wore her heart on her sleeve—a very caring person. May she be at peace.
