I want to let you all know that today I stepped down as photography coordinator at RR. I returned home on Thusday from a viist to Mum's. After David and I left my poor Mum had another fall. At this time in my life family is my priority. It is unfair to other team members for me to be absent for long periods. I wish to thank Danny, Bruce, & Kort for their help to me over these last weeks. Even though Ilona and Barbara are now not with us here, my thanks extend to them too. I will continue to upload my works when time and circumstances allow. RR is my second family. I thank you all for support of me and for well wishes for my dear Mum. Hugs, Diane. __________________ "Horses lend us the wings we lack" ~ Pam Brown.

what a shame, but I do understand you, hopefully they will find soon a new one
the time I was still coord I tried to help you to go through the whole process.....

family things are more important I agree with it

That must have been a tough decision, Di... I know how hard you wanted to fulfill the coord's job to everyone's satisfaction. You would have made a perfect coord if you only had the time. But family matters come first. Very sorry to hear about your mother... just when things seemed to go in the right direction...
You are a fantastic person, Di... I'm sure your dear Mum will benefit greatly from having you around, as we will whenever you're passing by... Take care.

Diane you are sorely missed whenever your away but surely family must come first! My prayers are with your mom and all your family in hope that all may be comforted and well.

Oh Di,
I am so sorry to hear the bad news about your mum but I, and I'm sure everyone would agree with you, that family does and must always come first.
You are such a wonderful, caring and sharing person and I know I will miss having you around here my big Sis, but we will keep in touch - you still owe me a bacon butty!!
Keep smiling and be strong knowing that we will all have you, David and your mum in our thoughts and prayers.
Gentle hugs dear Di....

Thanks to you all, Chrissy dear. I will still be HERE uploading my work. I have no intention of NOT uploading work. It helps me, to have something to do that I love. I am proud of my gallery at RR and will continue to post my works... You won't get rid of me that easy ;-) LOL!! Hugs, Diane. ________________ "Horses lend us the wings we lack" ~ Pam Brown.

Indeed Diane it is right to put family first and you have many friends here who understand.. Thanks for what you did to help us..

Ît'sabsolutely normal and human that you decide to help someone in real life, even more if it's your family / your friends, and someone who really needs help.
I hope she doesn't have too much pain, and that she will quickly recover. And for you the deep-rooted power to help without losing yourself. Do try to get enough rest. Also mental.

Diane, I was concerned about the trip and hoped your mum would be fine to joy you up a bit.  Hopefully that did. Now with the new fall..oh my, sweet lady...I understand your decision completely and would have it no other way if in your shoes.  Hang in there.  You are a precious person.   Best wishes and prayers for your mom and for you and David during this.       Tom.

Di, I hope your mum will be Ok.  Family first everytime, there is nothing more important than them.....thoughts and prayers go your mum's and your way...
hugs sue

Di, I'm glad you're going to be around to show us the beauty of your Bay.  I find that Art  helps keep me sane, althought there were a lot of insane Artist out there lol. Sorry to hear about mum, but know that it helps to have you there. Know that you have alot of friends here pulling for you and praying for your mum.  Chocolate Hugs my friend:0)bonita

Hope that you Mum is OK!  Your family must come first.

It'a a shame to see you go, but family must always come first!

my prayers is with you and your family
