We are saddened to hear of Diann's passing. I enjoyed working with her and was impressed with the way she moved the food service at SHHS into the 21st century. A great lady always ready with a smile. We used her catering service, too, and it was always exactly what he hoped for. Thoughts and prayers.

Diann was always willing to let my special needs students work in the lunchroom and kitchen. She helped me coordinate the programs with them at the ISD in later years. She was compassionate and caring! I will miss her.

Dear family, I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mom,sister grandmother was quite the lady. She always greeted me with a smile and was always so helpful when we both worked at HPS. Our relationship continued when she moved to SHPS and we would see each other out and about. Her love for her family was so evident. She would bring out her pictures and the news clippings she carried in her wallet every time we saw each other and share news of the her kids and grand babies. My heart aches with yours. Love and prayers, Donna

I had the pleasure of sharing the love for riding with Diane and I became an employee of the food service thanks to her. She was a wonderful woman. I am so very sorrowed by her passing from this earth and our presence. I shall remember her always. I know that she is with our father in heaven and rid of her suffering. The beauty of this portrait and her smile shows the image of her soul in heaven... happy. My Prayers go out to the family, many friends and all the people whoms lifes she touched along her journey. She will be Greatly Missed.
