Mummy, it has rained since you left us... it feels like tears flowing from heaven.
Zarli found but only 1 star in the whole sky the evening you left us, she knows that's Nannie shining brightly.
I know you are at peace now, but I am in pieces. You were the glue that held our broken pieces together.
I never understood why my babies never made it to my arms.. but now I know that you needed some beautiful grandchildren to hold in heaven.
You were the most amazing Mummy/ Nannie how do I ever fill your shoes?
Thank you for showing me how to be respectful, brave, never to judge or hold a grudge, to cook, to never say never... so many things that just can't be written in such a short time..
Your video calls when Zarli had a bad day or just got a booboo or lost a tooth and was scared. It's these things can never be replaced. You were one of a kind.
I pray that I can be who you wanted me to be... I just wanna make you proud.
I can still feel your guidance around me I just wish I could see, feel, touch and talk to you too.
Don't worry about Pa. When I said we got ya... I meant it...
It was our turn to look after you guys now and I will.
I will honour you... and share my warm hugs to put love and happiness out to all those that need it.
Thank you Mum... but I just can't bring myself to believe you have gone.
I love you 😘December 01, 2024 6:12 pm
Our condolences to Michael and family on the passing of Dianne, thinking of you all at this sad time.

I’m flabbergasted 😮
I’m still in shock Nannie !
I can’t believe you are gone forever!
Why did you leave us so early?
We were getting ready to come and spend Christmas 🎄 with you .
Graham and I were getting ready for our 40th birthday celebration which you were so eager to join us in celebrating.
Such a loving , gentle, caring and friendly mother - in - law, mum , wife , grandmother and a friend .
Thanks for all the beautiful and lovely Christmas set up and decorations ! Truely you love ❤️ Christmas and have passed on to your children and grandchildren.
Such a gentle , beautiful and lovely soul !
It is very devastating news to us. We can’t comprehend it but God knows best .
Your husband, siblings, children, grandchildren , in- laws, family , school and class mates , friends and loved ones will forever miss you !
Your faith in God was unquestionable! Thanks for all the amazing sacramentals and religious gifts including the beautiful Catholic wedding Bible you bought for Emma and I. Your regular visits to us and your other children and in- laws will forever be remembered. Thank you for cooking for us , providing shelter for us anytime we visited you.
Nannie I have finished washing and drying the clothes but who will fold them? Is time for Mass and we are waiting for you to come with us ? Paa is calling you Di, Dianne where is my breakfast but you are not responding? Nannie , Zarli and your grandchildren want to talk to you. Where are you ? Zarli wants to video call you to show you her beautiful art/ craft work and the gifts she got from us and other people. “ I want to show Nannie my cleaned room and my new toys “ says Zarli .
“ When are we going to visit Nannie and Pa?” “ When are they visiting us in Melbourne?”says Zarli.
Who do I video call when I need to talk to” says Emma.
Thank you and Paa for raising such a beautiful, lovely 🥰 and caring daughter Emma for me to marry as my wife .
The Obeng and Amponsah family home and abroad sends our deepest condolences 💐 to you Paa - Michael, Olivia , Emma , Graham , and the entire Board family!
You are in our prayers and thoughts!!!!
Rest in God’s bosom!
Till we meet again - Dianne ( Nannie) , we say “ It is well with our souls”.November 29, 2024 3:23 pm
Words are inadequate to express our sorrow at your loss. It was way too early. We are thankful that we were able to get together for the Board Family BBQ where we were able to hug her, give her a kiss, and tell her how much we loved her.
