Dianna E. Fountain, age 82, of St. Martin, Mississippi, passed away peacefully at her home on Sunday, September 21, 2025.
Born on May 28, 1943, at Old Biloxi Hospital, Dianna was a lifelong resident of the Gulf Coast. She attended St. Theresa Elementary School and went on to graduate from Sacred Heart Girls High School in May of 1961. After high school, Dianna began her career at United Gas before joining Piltz, Williams, LaRosa & Company, where she worked as a receptionist and prepared financial statements “the old-fashioned way.” Known for her perfectionism and strong work ethic, she took great pride in her work until her retirement in December 2003. A devoted member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church throughout her life, Dianna’s faith was constant. She lived for many years on Gulf Stream Point in St. Martin, cherishing her family home until it was lost in Hurricane Katrina.
Dianna was preceded in death by her parents, Herbert Lawrence Fountain and Josephine Giametta Fountain; her brothers, Joseph Elroy Fountain, Sr. and Benny Anthony Fountain; and her sister, Rose Marie Fountain.
A graveside service will be held on Friday, September 26, 2025, at 10:30 a.m. at D’Iberville Memorial Park. Fellowship will follow at the St. Martin Lions Club.
