Dianne had an idyllic childhood growing up in rural Shelby County. She graduated from Calera High School in 1969 and was married to Douglas Matherly on January 5, 1973. She was a Certified Insurance Service Representative and spent her 32-year career in insurance.
Dianne's fondest memories were going to Shannon Horse Ranch with her PawPaw and catching a 19-pound grouper while deep-sea fishing. She enjoyed listening to music, researching genealogy, scrapbooking, knitting, gardening, watching football - Alabama, Auburn and Miami Dolphins - and NASCAR. She was a sweet, generous lady who will be missed by all who knew her.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Claude Lawrence Crim and Margaret McCall Crim; her husband, Douglas Matherly; and her sister-in-law, Susan Crim.
She is survived by her brother, Johnny Mack Crim; nieces, Tammie Tubbs and Robin Eiland; nephew, Steven Weaver; and her devoted caregiver, Addie Crayton.
