A lifelong Jamestown resident, she was born May 27, 1938, the daughter of the late Robert and Oleita Seeley White.
Dianne was a 1956 graduate of Jamestown High School and later graduated from WCA Hospital School of Nursing.
Her career as a nurse began at WCA Hospital and included work in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., before she returned to Jamestown to be closer to family and start one of her own in the late 1960s. She returned to the workforce in the early 1980s as a home health care coordinator for Upjohn Healthcare (later Care-Givers) and was shortly thereafter promoted to be the manager of the Jamestown office, where she worked until retirement and was recognized for excellence in managing the top regional CareGivers office several times.
