I have been blessed with a wonderful childhood filled with memories of 'Ms. Troychak.' Diane was like a second mother to me, always making me feel comfortable when I was at her home. Her strength became evident to me, as I grew older and became aware of the challenges of life. Diane gracefully enjoyed life, raised amazing kids and loved those close to her. She will forever hold a special place in my heart.

A good, good friend and loyal friend since college at Michigan State University. She always was there for me no matter what. I will miss the long phone calls and the weeks we spent at Lake Leelanau near Traverse City. I can't believe this has happened. She will be immensely missed. Sue Trimm
