Diane Green

Kathy Diane Green, 63, entered her eternal home Thursday, June 25, 2015, surrounded by her family, following many years of failing health. Born on January 20, 1952, to Bob and Joy Osborn, she was a lifelong member of Pisgah United Methodist Church. She was a graduate of Thrasher High School and NEMCC. She married Jimmy Dale Green on May 23, 1969, and to this union was born one son, Brad. She retired from Baptist Memorial Hospital, where she was a payroll clerk.

Diane’s selfless determination to get up each day and serve those she loved as much as well as her unshakable, never wavering faith in her Lord as she suffered the confines of illness was an inspiration to all who knew her. Diane’s happiness on this earth came from her beloved home, church and family. She was blessed with a lifelong companion and best friend who later became her caregiver, her mother Joy. She was a dedicated wife, mother, daughter and sister.
