Please know Alec, Paul and David that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. As a young child I remember when Diana moved to Seymour West. She made a difference …..within the community, her professional environment and her Church family. Her kindness and thoughtfulness shown towards my aging mother were greatly appreciated. Memories are precious and you will have many to cherish in your hearts forever. As always, Ena(McCulloch) & Dennis Kerr

When I moved into Multicare Lodge Diana was one of the first to welcome me and offer me a job. She was President of the Tenant Association and needed a secretary. We worked together for two years and I must say she was a great boss. We remained close friends and she kept me involved in the Lodge events. She had a great sense of duty to her community and is the reason we have our wonderful Multicare Lodge today. You will be missed Diana and always remembered. Your friend Ruth
My sincere sympathy Alex and family, I was able to have many visits with Diana, thanks to Archie Eady. Memories can’t be taken away.

My sympathy to all the Rutherford and Filson family at this sad time. Diana left her mark and will be missed.
I remember seeing Diana and Alec at grandpa George, and grandma Jenny Partridge’s home when I was very young. I have spoken to Diana and Alec many times over the past few years. My condolences to family.
Diana was a lovely woman who made true contributions to our community. I first met Diana when she worked with the Red Cross in Campbellford. She was always available to help out in her community with various projects and working to improve health care for many (especially trying to get a dialysis unit locally). I enjoyed our brief chats at the grocery store or dropping in at the Multi Care Lodge. All the best to Alec and the family. Trish
Di was a gracious lady May she rest in peace
Diana was a great woman and will always be remembered for her love of family and community. Condolences to the family.
