Dianne has been a tireless help in the FBA. I will miss her humor and friendship. I hope she enjoys the next chapter of her life! — Anthony DiMarco, Executive Vice President, Government Affairs

Dianne is professional, reliable, and a real pleasure to work with. I have noticed over the years that it is impossible to not have a smile on your face when she shows up in your office. We will undoubtedly miss her professional services to the association but also hope she will continue to remotely operate our lotto pool! Cheers to your retirement, Dianne! — Kenneth Pratt, Senior Vice President, Government Affairs

Wishing you all the best in your retirement. I will truly miss working with you and hearing all your stories. — Barbi Miller, Controller

Dianne, I wish you the best in your retirement and hope you have many relaxing mornings, watching the birds and drinking your coffee, while spending quality time with your dogs.

Your positive energy, Dianne, will be sincerely missed. May your retirement be filled with magic and joy! — Marilyn Matherne, Director of Education Dianne is kind, loving, snarky, hilarious, and the best hugger! I wish her all the happiness, peace, adventure, and puppy kisses she can handle in her retirement! — Cheryl Tucker, Executive Assistant, Government Affairs I have loved working next door to Dianne in my short time at the FBA. She is hard working but also very fun; we have laughed a lot! Dianne will be missed; I wish her the very best in life and a very happy retire ment! Bill, Lola, and the rest of the pets are getting a gift to be able to share even more time with her! — Olga Williams, Professional Development Coordinator Working with Dianne was the best.
