Diane has always had a special love for animals, and she joined DCHS in 2021 working with the Pets for Life Program (PFL). She has also been a canine companion volunteer at DCHS for the past 20 years. Diane shared her love for animals with her father who would find stray dogs and bring them home. Her mother, however, would not allow them in the house so only turtles lived inside. Diane has had several dogs and two cats over the years and currently shares her home with a senior dog named Gator, a DCHS alum.
