Linda Ann Diehl

She was born in Georgia on July 6, 1957, to Earl Charles and Betty Jane (Rowles) Diehl.

She was a longtime employee of Holiday Inn in Angola, Indiana where she worked for 20 years. She was also a longtime employee of QC Onics for 14 years. She was employed by IMP in Angola for nine years before she passed away.

Ms. Diehl graduated from Fremont High School and attended Manchester College in North Manchester, Indiana. She had high hopes and dreams of becoming a teacher, for she loved children very much.

She was the backbone and strength of her family, always putting them before herself. She enjoyed reading, but anytime there was an opportunity to be with family and friends, her books were put aside.

She was preceded in death by her father, Earl Charles Diehl and her brother, Earl William Diehl.
