Sign in to add a tributeI was a colleague of Diane's through many years when she was Preseident of the then HCIMA & very much admired her professionalism .She succeeded in having a tremoudous career in the hospitality industry & most certainly was a trailblazer for the next generation of women wishing to attain top positions within the industry at that time & in the future.I was also lucky to have had an interesting social friendship with her & only last year had dinner with her at a function on the Royal Yacht in Edinburgh.I was also fortunate to meet up with her in late March in Glasgow when it was unfortunately noticeable that her health was beginning to deteriorate.I will always treasure a lovely engagement present which she & another very close friend gave me 22 years ago!!!
Myself,Jennifer Bryson & Diane shared many a good time together & a trip to London very often included either a visit to the roof top bar in the Hilton or champagne in Harvey Nickers!!!!!!---- Diane always enjoyed the best of hospitality & gave so much of herself to its cause.I am sure her daughter will have the same confidence & professionalism in her chosen career.I was privileged to be part of her social circle like so many others all over the world.
