Dianna was a very talented seamstress. She was always sewing things for family and friends. She was especially excited once she was able to start sewing things for her grandchildren. She was also talented at crocheting. She crocheted many dresses for her granddaughters and many stuffed animals for all of her grandchildren. Dianna was a loving mother and grandmother. She loved to watch old western movies and television shows. She loved doing word search puzzles when she wasn’t sewing or crocheting. She loved a good joke and had an infectious laugh that was contagious to everyone in earshot. Dianna’s heart was full of love for her family and friends. She especially loved her children and grandchildren. They were her whole world. Dianna had a deep testimony of the teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She instilled that love for something she found so important in her children.
