Dianne Stakes Busby

Dianne spent the majority of her life in Gillis. After retiring from her role as a P.E. teacher at Moss Bluff Middle School, she then ran the family business, CAN-IT Inc. Dianne had a deep love for hunting, fishing, and observing wildlife from her back porch. Above all, her greatest joy came from spending time with her grandchildren.
