Journal entry by Jennifer Narr-Rodrigues —
Hello everyone,
Mom/Diane passed away peacefully today at 12:15p.
Rick and I thank everyone for the last year and a half of prayers, support, and overall care. Mom/Diane strongly believed in helping medical students learn and donated her body to the University of Minnesota. She wanted to continue to find ways to help future generations with various illnesses and cures.
For those who want to know about funeral arrangements, our mom requested that we did not have a funeral. When we get the ashes back from the U of M, we will be planting them with the urn she selected to grow into a willow tree.
Mom/Diane is free of all the tubes, all of the pain (in the end), and is reunited with her parents and brother.
Love,
Jen and Rick
