Diane was one of a kind and a dear work friend. Her voice always made me smile and even though we never met face to face, my heart is broken. May her family be reassured of how amazing she was.

Diane & I worked in the music program together at church for several years. She was so talented and l learned so much. We lost track of each other after she left our church. She will be missed by many family and friends; and was welcomed into the arms of God.

"D.Free"

As I sit here at work, I'm sad you are not here to visit with and laugh with. I miss the sound of your voice calling out trades. You were an awesome co-worker and friend. You are one tough woman. Thinking of you and your family.

Dear Freen Dog (a/k/a Freeney),

We worked together years ago at T. J. Raney and Sons / Morgan Keegan in the 1980's. We loved the annual Christmas parties and comraderie of our co-workers. I have some wonderful pictures of a couple of those. Freen was a great co-worker and friend and was loved by many. She loved her family and was a good daughter, sister and mom and grandmother.
My prayers are with her family in the loss of a young, energetic Christian woman who lived and loved big. Peace and Healing are now yours.

I have worked with Diane (aka "Freeney") twice during my work career. The first time was at TJ Raney, when I was fresh out of college. Freeney was just a few years older than me, and although she initially intimidated me with her large personality, I soon came to love her as a great co-worker. I went away for a while, then came back to the company as it was Morgan Keegan. Diane was her same, wonderful, feisty self and during our joint time there, I loved and respected her all over again.
She was a gem, and this world is less bright without her. God's peace to the family...

I worked closely with Diane at the Bank of Oklahoma, and was saddened to learn of her passing. Diane always made family a priority. She boasted about her two sons, adored her grandbabies, and frequently drove to Mississippi to visit her parents, sister and extended family. Due to her open expression of faith, I am confident that when Diane passed away, she stepped immediately into the presence of Jesus Christ, and was made whole. It is Diane's spunk that I will remember most about her - Ms. Diane Freeney was a courageous lady!

Diane touched our lives in a meaningful way. I'll miss her laugh, her friendship and seeing her when I walk in to the office every day. Diane was kind and caring and loved her family. She will be greatly missed. My prayers are with you all.

I worked closely with Freeney for 6 years at Bank of Oklahoma. She was a devout Christian and mother to her two boys. I was so sad to hear of her passing but thankful that she is WHOLE again in heaven ... free of illness and pain. Praying for her family.

Our Dear, Sweet Freeney...
I was so saddened and shocked, to hear of her passing. She was always so energetic and vibrant to work with. Although I haven't seen her in a while, I've always had fond memories of her when we worked at T. J. Raney & Sons together. We were a family of co-workers, who enjoyed our camaraderie and love for each other. She was always so, so PROUD of her two sons, and loved her family dearly. Peace be with you all...
