Diane Jane Rothrock

March 13, 2011

On March 8, 2011 Diane Jane Rothrock joined her Lord & Savior in heaven after a valiant effort to overcome complications from a bout of flu.

Diane was born and raised in Tacoma, Washington where she was part of the 1952 graduating class of Fife High School. In 1961 she moved to Cantonment, FL along with her husband Coman Wendell Rothrock, Jr, and worked as the receptionist for Champion International Paper Company for over 20 years before retiring.

Diane had numerous hobbies including traveling, gardening, and decorating, but with her God given gift of hospitality, she especially found great delight and joy in cooking and entertaining in her home in order to be an encouragement and blessing to others.

As a believer and follower of Christ, she was faithfully involved in church activities, Bible studies, and personal spiritual growth throughout her lifetime.

In 2006 Diane moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan, near her daughter, grandchildren, and great grandchildren and in 2009 she moved to Sun City West, Arizona, again to be near daughters, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

A few knew her as “Mom”, some knew her as “Grandma”, and some affectionately knew her as “GG” (Great Grandma). Countless others in her life called her a dear friend and finally, Christ her Savior, graciously called her home.

A memorial service will be held in her honor at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, March 14, 2011, at Faith Chapel Funeral Home in Cantonment, Fl.

Faith Chapel Funeral Home North, 1000 Highway 29 South Cantonment is in charge of arrangements.
