Diane Potter of Dover, DE, passed away on November 11, 2025, at Bayhealth Hospital. She was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend whose spirit of adventure and larger than life personality touched everyone she met.
Born in Montreal, Quebec to Raymond and Simone Prevost on August 9, 1955, Diane lived a life full of joy, curiosity, and love. She spent many years traveling for work and pleasure. In recent years she had settled more into a simpler routine of curling up to watch movies and tv with her constant, faithful companion, her dog Biskit.
Diane will be deeply missed by her loving family. She is survived by her children: her son Mark, and his wife Christina; and her daughter Sara, and her husband, Stu. She was a proud and devoted grandmother to Thera, Luke and Jack. She is also survived by her siblings, Jon, Gerry, Rae, Claudette, Camille and Dany, along with many nieces, nephews and dear friends.
There will be no public service. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the Lupus Foundation of America or Lupus Canada in her honor.
