She attended school at Oaks Mission, then attended university at NSU and Tulsa Community College, and was the owner of “Diane’s Tanning and Tone “in Keys, OK, where she was very enthusiastic about helping people on the toning tables to obtain better health. She worked as both a Home Health Aide and Hospice Caregiver. Diane was caring and thoughtful, even as a child. She was always ready to go visit her grandparents and help them in any way she could. This love of people carried on into her adult years, where countless hours were spent helping those who needed it most. She enjoyed time spent in the great outdoors and liked fishing and camping. Music was part of her daily life and she listened to country, classic rock, and gospel. She had an eye for interior decorating, making her own ceramics to accent her home. She enjoyed traveling with her fiancé , Michael Robbins, exploring the many sights the United Sates had to offer. She was a devoted daughter, granddaughter, mother and friend. The light of her life was her daughter, Casey. There was nothing she wouldn’t do and no one she would rather spend the day with, than her daughter. Diane was a Christian by faith and attended the Baptist churches in the area. Diane endured many illnesses yet always had a smile and tried to make those around her happy too.
