A proud resident of Franklinton for over 50 years. Dianne was an outstanding Nursing Assistant for many years.
Dianne was loving, compassionate, and most of all a very caring person to all. She enjoyed spending time outdoors watching and feeding the hummingbirds. However, her true passion was spending time with her loving family and friends. Dianne was unique and irreplaceable, well respected and liked, and will be deeply and dearly missed by all who knew and loved her. Her jovial spirit and tender nature will remain in the many memories of her cherished friends and family until they meet her again.
