Diane enjoyed community service, reading, exercising with her Y friends, cats, gardening, making crafts, traveling and fellowship at Asbury First United Methodist Church. She was a mask-maker and helped keep the Rochester community safe. Mostly, she loved doing things for others. Nothing made her happier than spending time with grandchildren.
