Diana graduated from Hannibal High School in 1978. In high school, she participated JV basketball and VICA, cheered on the sports teams as a Pirate Peppers and baseball statistician. She attended Northeast Missouri State University (now known as Truman State University). She lived in Arizona & Michigan before returning back to Hannibal to start a family. She worked at General Mills where she enjoyed organizing Highway clean ups, volunteering at the family picnics & environmental fairs and working with Interns. She loved learning, teaching others of environmental safety and practices.

Diana was a woman who enjoyed a simple life and found joy in life's everyday moments. She enjoyed spending time outside either gardening or with her animals. She loved watching sports either cheering on her children when they played in school or her favorite professional teams: St. Louis Cardinals and the Kansas City Chiefs. Later in life, she enjoyed her favorite game shows.

Throughout life's trials and tribulations, Diana had a strong relationship with God. She tried to exude Christian values and live in love. Above all, Diana treasured spending time with her family and friends. Whether sharing conversations, laughter at family gatherings or quiet moments together, those close to her knew how deeply she valued connection and togetherness. She enjoyed family reunions and fish fry's filled with laughter and music. Her warmth, loyalty, and uncomplicated approach to life left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her, and she will be fondly remembered for the love she shared and the memories she created.

The family would like to thank the staff LINCARE, the nursing and hospital staff of the ICU at Hannibal Regional Hospital, and the Community Loving Care Hospice team, especially Jen and Kayla, her nurses.
