deeply in love with Texas. In December of 1998, Karl retired and they decided to settle down in

Copperas Cove, TX.

Diane’s enthusiasm for the Dallas Cowboys went unmatched, she never passed up an

opportunity to defend her team’s reputation. She had an intense passion for her second

amendment, in fact she spent a good chunk of her life as a firearms expert. She was strong

minded and never wavered from her beliefs, but she was so incredibly loving and caring. She

had the biggest soft spot for all cats and kittens of the world. She loved traveling and embarking

on adventures with her friends and family, whether be by road trips or on a cruise. Diane never

ceased to put her family and friends needs first, no matter the cost to herself. She was the

embodiment of a strong woman, everything she overcame in her life is truly inspiring to those

whom love her.
