Diane was born in DeLand FL on May 27, 1953, she then moved to Miami FL, where she lived for most of her adult life with the father of her children, then she lived in Orlando and then in Astor, FL. Diane loved spending time with family and friends and was the Matriarch of our family, the glue that kept us all together. Her love was like none other. When she loved, she loved deep.
