Diane Elizabeth Gattuso, a beloved wife, mother, sister, aunt, and friend, passed away peacefully surrounded by love. Born on August 11, 1958, in North Plainfield, New Jersey, Diane lived a life defined by creativity, kindness, and an endless devotion to her family and friends.
Diane and her husband, Gregg, the love of her life, built a beautiful life together in South Jersey, raising four children who grew up not only as siblings but as best friends. Through her actions and example, Diane taught her children to love deeply, live generously, and always strive to be good people.
Diane's talents were many. With an art degree from Kean University, she channeled her creativity into everything she touched-from breathtaking gardens to legendary custom birthday cakes that made every celebration unforgettable. She was known for her incredible baking and cooking, with several "must have" dishes for every holiday or celebration which will live on through her daughter.
Those who knew Diane will remember her kindness, her patience, and her fiery spirit that emerged when needed - qualities that made her not just a mother to her own children, but a nurturing figure to so many others blessed to be loved by her. She had a way of making everyone feel welcome, cared for, and seen. Diane's life was a beautiful testament to selflessness, creativity, and unconditional love.
She will be deeply missed and forever remembered. Proceeded in death by her husband Gregg, her remaining three adoring children: Darin Gattuso (DeMorris), Rachel (Mark) Sandora, and Dean (Adrianna) Gattuso; Four incredible siblings: Cathy (Al) Anderson, Patrick (Cindy) Driscoll, Maureen (Phil) Murphy, and Brady Driscoll (Cindy), countless nieces and nephews, and all her honorary children.
Diane is now at peace, walking the streets of gold with her angels, eldest son Jared Gattuso and mother, Patricia Driscoll (Nanny).
Relatives and friends are invited to her visitation on Saturday May 10th from 9:30-11 AM at Bradley Funeral Home, 601 Rt.73 South, Marlton, NJ. A memorial service will be held at 11 AM Saturday at the funeral home.
