In loving memory of Diane Haines who sadly passed away on 8th November 2024, aged 87 years. Diane was born in Johannesburg in 1937. She came with her father and grandparents to live in Nottingham following the Second World War. She married in 1963 and raised two sons. In 1991 she set up house as a single woman and made new friends, worked in an antiquarian book shop and studied with the Open University. From this time until her demise she frequently travelled to visit her sons in Holland and Spain. Diane was also a keen supporter of the arts, often attending arts festivals and classical concerts. It is this interest that is reflected here in her choice of a charity for donations.
To me, a long time friend of David's, Diane was always such a beautiful, joyous person to be around. Such a positive fountain of energy, fun and not just a little mischief. Her love for, and pride in, David and Jamie quite rightly knew no bounds. She will be greatly missed, but what a true joy it is to have known her.
Heel heel veel sterkte David, James en Harm! Mooi tekst over Diane en een mooi goed doel. Diane was een hele lieve en warme vrouw.
Diane was a wonderful person. She was a great friend to my mother Kathleen. She has been a thoughtful and generous friend to me, Laura and our children over many years.
She will be greatly missed by us all.
