Dianna was known for her big heart and lively personality. Dianna was loved and cherished by all. She was a dedicated mother, first and foremost.

She made friends everywhere she went, and her customers at M&R also loved her. Dianna was an influential person with an impressive appetite for achievement as a Financial Officer. She persevered in her career and personal life, never backing down from a challenge. Dianna had many friends and was a well-loved member of the community. Anyone who knew her knew she loved to love everyone and could make anyone feel at home in her presence.

The Celebration of Life for Dianna Steele will be at the Botanical Gardens on the Wedding Lawn on September 5, 2023.  The venue will open for visitation with family from 4 pm to 7 pm, with the formal service will begin at 5 pm. The celebration will be an outdoor event, so please dress comfortably and in lighter colors. Dianna's favorite color was purple, and the family would love it if anyone could don her favorite color.
