On October 22, we bid farewell to our cousin and friend Diane, an elegant, creative and joyful lady. Diane was born Nov. 13, 1940, in Nelson, BC, Canada and grew up in Grand Forks and on the west coast. Diane loved art and fashion and opened her own store in Vancouver. She later moved to Toronto to pursue a career as a model and pattern designer for Simplicity.
In the late ’70s, California called and Diane moved to L.A., working as a designer for Creative Circle. Here, she met her husband and artist, Bob Heiner. They lived happily in Marina del Rey until Bob’s passing. Diane then moved to Glendale, where she enjoyed entertaining, creative projects, gardening and especially her dogs Disney, Jack and Oreo. You are always loved and never forgotten. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
