"I am writing to speak with appreciation and gratitude to the Sisters community. The memorial for Diane Jacobsen (Mrs. J.) was a wonderful, thoughtful and grateful experience.

"Two of my sons were fortunate enough to have her for their sixth grade teacher. One of my sons, Clay, has had the privilege of teaching with her at the elementary school for the past six years.

"Many of the reasons she was so loved and appreciated were mentioned in The Nugget's tribute and reconfirmed by many who spoke at her "life celebration."

"The high school auditorium was full of students, parents and relatives that came to share their appreciation of this great teacher, wife and mother. I am hopeful that all that attended or knew Diane will consider contributing to the Diane Jacobsen Memorial Scholarship Fund set up at Bank of the Cascades.

"If every person that attended or knew her contributed an envelope containing a dollar or more, it would have a great impact on the scholarship fund and deserving students.

"I know this would have been greatly appreciated by Diane. This fund will continue Diane's efforts to contribute to our children's education through our donations."
