Diana was employed for many years doing clerical work in the plumbing supply industry and dining service work at a local casino before moving to Sun City Center and serving as a caregiver to others before retiring at the age of 71.  

In her spare time, she enjoyed spending time outdoors, shopping and dancing.  Her outgoing personality lit up a room when she would walk in, and in no time, strangers became friends.  Most of all, she loved being a mom to her sons and spending time with her family.
