In loving memory of Diane Lynn Ringshauser, a cherished wife, dedicated nurse, and beloved member of the community, who touched the lives of many with her kindness and unwavering spirit. Diane was born on November 5, 1949, in New Castle, PA and peacefully passed away on Monday, October 28, 2024.

Diane was the devoted wife of William "Bill" Ringshauser for nearly five decades, sharing a love of travel and adventure, particularly enjoying trips to Maine to visit lighthouses. She was the caring sister of David (late Debbie) Tarnaski, the late Louis Tarnaski, late Richard Tarnaski and loving aunt to ten nieces and nephews. Diane cherished her dear friends Dixie Pfeiffer and Linda Fox, finding solace in their companionship. An animal lover, she adored her two cats, Grigsy and Woody, treating them like family. Diane will forever hold a special place in the hearts of her family, and her memory will live on through stories filled with love and laughter.

Diane's compassion and dedication shone through her work as a nurse. During her nursing journey, she touched countless lives and made a lasting impact with her kind and caring demeanor. Having graduated from the Sharon General Hospital School of Nursing in 1969, Diane embarked on a fulfilling career, starting at the Veterans Hospital before transitioning to work in pediatrics, where her dedication to patient care was deeply felt. Though health challenges led to her retirement in 1992, she will be remembered for her kind and caring demeanor that left a lasting impact on many.

After retiring, Diane continued to serve her community through volunteer work, volunteering at the Westwood First Presbyterian Church, actively participating in church events and serving as the co- chair of the church circle group where she developed lifelong friendships and unwavering commitment to helping others.

In addition to her professional achievements, Diane had a passion for capturing memories through photography, creating beautiful scrapbooks, indulging in cross-stitch, and curating her collections of toy frogs, Fenton glass, Jim Shore artwork, and Lowell Davis wood carvings. Diane found solace in the beauty of life, finding comfort in her garden and cultivated a sense of peace among her vibrant blooms.
