Diana immensely enjoyed her service with the Benton Bay Lions and participated in numerous projects including Vision Screening. She was grateful and proud to have been a part of the Lion's family.
Diana was preceded in death by her parents, Charles W. and Regina Campbell.
She is survived by her husband, Dennis P. Cummings; son, Jack T. Trucks; daughter, Marie L. Trucks; grandchildren, Dolores R. Trucks, Andrea Mills and Tommy Brown (Christina); sister, Pamela Licaretz; and great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
