Diane was a dedicated volunteer at the Adam Benjamin VA Clinic in Crown Point and at the Orlando Veterans Hospital in Florida where she would spend her winters. Diane liked to travel, drive her two-seater sports car, walk her dog, Bear, and collect her paper machete Santa Clauses. Diane kept her mind sharp by working word search puzzles and watching Jeopardy. She will be truly missed by those who knew and loved her.
