I was really little when I was with my grandma we had a lot of fun with her we would play games and watch western movies everyday
I love you ❤️ very much
I will miss your smiling face, from greeting us as we walked into the shop to be serviced by Matt..
Warm Regards,
Winder Family(Dana Billings Cureton)
Our condolences go out Matthew and family. Dianne was a strong lady, great wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Bless each of you in your time of sorrow.
I respected Mrs. Shipman so much that I never ever called her Diane even though we had a friendship for many years. Some of the most favorite times of my life were when Matthew was busy working and she and I would spend up to 2 hours sometimes sitting in the shop talking about her kids, Matthew, and all kinds of things. She was such a friendly lady that I’ll bet that she made friends with everyone she met. I have missed her ever since she was unable to go with Matthew and I could see their happiness of being together. Over the 30 years or so that I have known Diane and Matthew, I have talked to both of them so much that I know they truly loved each other with all their hearts. Me, Melinda, and Luke miss her greatly and will keep her whole family in our prayers.
