A Heartfelt Thank You from the Family of Diane Shirley Rowe
Sheila George and the family of the late Diane Shirley Rowe would like to extend their deepest gratitude to everyone who supported us during this time of sorrow. Your kindness and thoughtfulness have been a source of comfort to us all.
We are especially thankful for the beautiful floral arrangements sent to the funeral home, the many food dishes lovingly prepared, and the generous donations made to the food bank in Diane’s honor. Your acts of kindness truly reflect the love and care Diane inspired in those around her.
A special thank you to Reverend Tanya White for leading such a touching and heartfelt service. Our cousin Judy Parsons and organist Monica Coffin added such grace and warmth to the farewell, and we are forever grateful for their contributions. We would also like to thank Fillatre’s Funeral Home for their compassion and professionalism.
Diane would have been deeply proud of everyone who came together to honor her memory. Her baby sister, Doris, played an especially meaningful role, ensuring Diane was laid to rest in “The Niche,” her final resting place, with love and dignity.
Diane, we will love and cherish you forever.
With heartfelt thanks,
Sheila, Ken, Sandra, Robert, Doris, and the families
Diane Shirley Rowe

Diane was always in contact with her family and friends and acknowledged their special days such as birthdays and anniversaries. She was a kind gentle soul and always had a funny story about life events. She was a tremendous person, a confidante with broad shoulders that we could rely on.
Diane was an avid softball player taking the position of first base as well as mentoring her teammates through every catch, pitch and swing. She played goalie in broomball and helped shape women in sport overall with her enthusiasm and passion. She had an awesome talent for throwing darts and shooting pool. She also enjoyed playing cards with friends and family and telling stories which were hilarious and she enjoyed making people laugh. She also loved camping, music and played spoons along with the family musicians. During her many years of playing sports, she earned many awards and medals for her accomplishments. Overall she was an All-star athlete.
She also loved making beaded bracelets and was a perfectionist with every one that she created.
Diane was very proud of her forty three years of service while she was employed at Western Memorial Regional Hospital from which she retired in 2013. She was always eager to learn new skills and also to mentor her fellow colleagues.
The family would like to acknowledge the Health Care Professionals and Support Staff at Western Health, Health Sciences Center and St. Clare’s Mercy Hospital. All of you were very kind to Diane and we are so grateful for your tireless care and compassion.
