Diana Dillman Obituary

In Loving Memory

Diana Jean Dillman

December 19, 1946 to September 10, 2014

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Diana Jean Dillman, oldest daughter of Bill and Eileen Dale of Kamloops (deceased).

Diana is survived by her husband Dave, daughter Deanna (Maury) Hik, son DJ (Jenn) Dillman, sister Sharon (Burk) Roblin, sister Elaine (Doug) Chambers & Diana's brother Jim (Pat) Dale, as well many relatives, nieces, nephews and friends.

Diana was married to her childhood sweetheart Dave Dillman at the age of 18, on June 19, 1965. Diana was all about family, first Deanna arrived and she was Mom's pride, then DJ. How she loved her children with all her might. We definitely had the world by the tail; life went fast.

Deanna married Maury Hik and later blessed us with four amazing grandchildren. First, Irelynd, now 16, Sehler 14, and the twins, Gethro & Gertie, 9. Grandma beamed with joy and that is all she talked about and loved sharing stories & pictures with friends and family. Then DJ and Jenn gave us Rome, our 5th grandchild. We thought life couldn't get better until Di started getting ill.

It was a long two years and, finally, after a courageous fight, she left us in her sleep at 1:05 pm September 10, 2014, with her family holding her hands and comforting her.

You touched everyone's lives Di, we love you, your pain has gone and now you can rest we will see you later.

There will be a celebration of life held at The Dunes, 652 Dunes Drive, Kamloops, BC on September 28, 2014 between 12:00 - 3:30. Coffee, tea, etc. will be served.
