Diane Davis - Sept. 8, 1942 - Mar. 27, 2007
Diane (Peters) Davis, age 64, of Las Vegas, Nevada, died on March 27, 2007, at Desert Springs Hospital in Las Vegas.
Diane was born September 8, 1942, in Storm Lake to Oscar and Evelyn (Boettcher) Peters. She was baptized as an infant on September 27, 1942, at St. Paul Evangelical Lutheran Church in Alta, Iowa, and later confirmed her faith at her confirmation on April 29, 1956, at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Pomeroy, Iowa. Diane was raised and received her education in the Pomeroy and Palmer areas. She graduated from Pomeroy-Palmer High School with the Class of 1960.
Diane was employed in an accounting capacity as well as in the area of security. She enjoyed reading, doing puzzles and collecting porcelain dolls. Among her special memories were her sister’s wedding, her vacations in Iowa and her parents’ 50th wedding anniversary celebration. Diane and her daughter, Dawn, shared a once-in-a-lifetime experience as they vacationed together in Mexico, as a gift from Diane to mark Dawn’s senior year and graduation from high school. A caring and giving person, Diane always thought of others before herself. She was always there for her family and friends. In her later years, her grandchildren were especially precious to her heart. She will be dearly missed by all those who loved her.
Left to cherish her memory are her daughter, Dawn Davis, of Las Vegas, Nevada; her father, Oscar Peters of Badger, Iowa; her sister, Susan Allen, of Eagle Grove, Iowa; her grandchildren: Kylee Louise Horn and Marissa Jaynell Horn, both of Las Vegas; nieces Melanie Lynn Anderson and Jennifer Louise Allen, both of Chariton, Iowa; extended family and a host of friends.
