I was so happy to see Josh and Diana Rowell on my caller ID Sunday, and my heart sank when Mrs. Rowell told me what happened. I didn't get to work with Diana for a very long time, but she had helped me often during my "travel agent" years. She was such a wonderful, kind person. Always there with a smile. Josh, you and the family are in my prayers. God Bless You All.
