  For many years, Diane worked for the Delphos Herald, she was the owner of the Four Seasons Craft Store in downtown Delphos, and she had also worked for  AFLAC and the Union Bank.

  Diane loved people.  Her life was a living example of pure love, like Corinthians 13:4-7

Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, it is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.  It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

  Funeral mass will be 11:00 a.m. Monday, June 15, 2020 at St. John's Catholic Church, Delphos with Father Tony Vera officiating.  Burial will follow in New Resurrection Cemetery, Delphos.  Visitation will be held 2 to 8 p.m. on Sunday at LOVE-HEITMEYER FUNERAL HOME, Jackson Township with a wake service at 8 p.m.
