Dear List, I know a lot of us asked Diane 103 to help us with look ups and she always did. I wanted to pass this along to everyone. We have lost a good friend. She had a heart of gold. I'm so blessed to have met her when I went down to Mayfield from Michigan. Renee Diane103 [6:35 PM]: Renee: My mother, Diane (Mowery) Annala of Mayfield, KY, passed away Nov. 2. She was active in the genealogy community for years and provided lookups and research for the Kentucky-Tennessee areas. Her husband asked me to pass this information along so her friends would be aware. If you have any questions or comments, please e-mail me (her son), at keith@darnay.com. Sincerely, Keith Darnay Diane103 [6:39 PM]: She was in the hospital for heart and lung issues. She coded three times for heart attacks and was revived, but she eventually succumbed to congestive heart failure at 5 pm, Nov. 2 at Western Baptist Hospital. The funeral was yesterday, Nov. 4. Diane103 [6:41 PM]: If you know any groups or people that should be contacted in the geneaology community, could you please let them know?
