Diane Lee was born and raised in Baltimore, MD. She is preceded by her mother Janet Y. DeBus, her father Edward Adam DeBus and her sister Linda Lee DeBus. She is survived by her brother Edward Alan DeBus, her twin sister Denise DeBus Clifford and her husband Steven D. Sober. She leaves her nieces Alex,Michelle, Karen and her nephews Adam, Eddie, Ryan, Tyler and Mike whom she dearly loved.   Diane worked the first half of her career at IBM as a customer engineer. The second half of her career was spent at CBS and Donohoe as a property manager.   Diane was a master gardener and created stunningly beautiful gardens at her homes. Diane was an animal lover, the birds that her garden attracted and her kitties ; two  Maine Coons and a brood of feral cats that decided to make her home their home. She was a gourmet cook, loved her food and great restaurants. Diane’s Thanksgiving dinners were better than any 5 star restaurant and she so enjoyed having friends and family around her.            

In lieu of flowers, the family ask that donations be made to one of the following charities:

Breast Cancer Research Foundation

Cause for Paws Cares
