Obituaries
Lady Dianne(Affiliation: New Orleans Bondage and Leather Enthusiasts)Lady Dianne was 38, a respected member of the community for six years, an associate member of NOBLE since its conception, and was previously a member of Rubicon of New Orleans. She was an office manager in Chalmette and is survived by her Father, Mother, and two children, and by her leather family, deb and lea. A lover of animals, she served as a Mommybird to her "babies": two cockatoos, a sun conure, three cockateils, three parakeets, and a love bird. She had also been on the NOBLE Dungeon Monitor team, and was a friend to all. The details are still sketchy on exactly how she passed, but suffice it to say she perished in the storm, Katrina. Condolences may be posted at A True Rose and at the LA-NOBLE e-mail list.
This remembrance was submitted by deb {MS} of NOBLE. i don't even know where to start to talk about Lady Dianne. i first met her at a munch at CC's coffee on Maple Street in early 2000. She was wandering around, looking lost and scared, and i just knew she was looking for us kink folk. She was new new new and it was my pleasure to watch her grow into this thing we are and become the beautiful full woman she was. She was stubborn beyond belief and that is why she refused to leave her home [during Hurricane Katrina]. She was loved by many and if you ever wanted to get a rise out of her, talk about censorship! She hated inequity in anything, it didn't matter who you were, what position you held, if you were wrong you needed to be called on it. She was true and loyal and will be missed by anyone she touched in her time with our group. i will miss her beautiful smile more than she will ever know. that is the Lady Dianne i knew and loved.
