Diane Collisi Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Diane is the beloved spouse of John Collisi, mother of Daniel and Jennifer. She is also survived by her sister Patricia and brother David along with many nieces, nephews and extended family members.
Diane grew up in the Cleveland and Parma Heights area of Ohio. In 1964, at the age of 19 she married John Collisi who was 21, and they moved to Texas where John was stationed at Fort Bliss. Upon John's discharge from the military, they moved back to the Cleveland area and started their family. In 1972 they moved to Walled Lake, Michigan and have lived there ever since.
Diane and John are devout Catholics and she took pride in raising her children and being a homemaker. She spent many years working in day care centers in the Union Lake and West Bloomfield areas. As a family they enjoyed camping as well as cheering on the children's baseball and softball leagues for many years.
A Mass in her memory is scheduled at St. Williams Parish in Walled Lake, Michigan on Friday, December 16, 2022 at 10 am.

Diane and I were cousins and friends. We had much fun in our teens going roller skating- she skated much better than me. We talked a short while ago. My sincere prayers are with you, Diane. Love you Amy
