Diane Smith
July 22,1945 - June 25,2018
The family of Diane Elizabeth Rinder Smith of Witter Springs, Calif., would like to share that she passed the morning of Monday, June 25, 2018, with her husband, Frederick Smith and her children by her side.
She was ill for a very short time and felt a calm, peaceful acceptance that carried her through and gave her family yet another example of the way she lived her life with beauty and grace. She left our earthly world fearlessly with love surrounding her.
Many times this past couple weeks she said how good it felt to be so loved.
Her family finds solace in knowing that Diane is with her daughter, Shalean; her parents, William and Henrietta Rinder; and the many loved ones who she said goodbye to in her lifetime.
Although she is no longer here physically, she remains in the hearts of all who knew her.
