I first met Lady Diana when she was pregnant with Taggy. Only 17 years old, and she was a goddess! She had golden hair and her skin was like pearls.  We, on the other hand, were savages - and we showed up at her house and demanded entrance. And she did everything for Rinpoche - she was his kusung, his cook, his sometimes driver. She dressed him, kept him informed, looked after his schedule, monitored his well being. He trusted her completely.  As the populace grew, Lady Diana would come in and out of our lives as we all navigated our way through our new burgeoning world of schedules and disciplines and practices and families and livelihoods.  There were times when I really needed her help and she was always there for me. Many years after Rinpoche died, I did some horse things with her. It was so much fun and she absolutely emanated the old Kalapa Court. Really amazing after so many years. I saw she had always held the keys to the inner and secret courts. My daughter today said it feels like the end of an era. I think she is right.
