According to her, the deceased has been has been their mother since losing their biological mother, who was her daughter.
Diana added that she could not bear seeing her lying in the casket.

“You have taught me a lot in this life. How to be strong and move on with life, to let go of hurt and pain, and most importantly, what it means to walk with God. I celebrate you today. You will forever be in my heart. Dance with the Angels. Talk to Mummy and Shosho about us. TELL THEM I WILL FOREVER MAKE ALL OF YOU PROUD, I PROMISE. TILL WE MEET AGAIN, I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU” she further said.
