Dianne Lorraine Long
September 25, 1953 - January 13, 2012
Dianne (Harrison) Long, 58, passed away in her home surrounded by her loving family, after losing a hard-fought three-month battle with metastic melanoma.
Born in Tacoma, WA, she grew up in Renton and later married the love of her life in December, 1975. They moved to Edmonds and in 1984 had one daughter, who always meant the world to her. In her free time, she loved to channel her creativity into scrapbooking, photography, and crafts. She also adored feeding birds, scenic motorcycle trips, and, of course, fresh Diet Coke! In her final years, she quit her career in Healthcare Administration to care for her terminally ill father, and eventually her mother. She made a point to live each day to its fullest, exercise regularly (lost 110lbs!), and go out of her way to make anyone and everyone feel loved and important.
Dianne was a special soul filled with love, respect, and unconditional caring. Her ubiquitous positive energy will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Dianne was a friend, mother, wife, but just as important, she was a SPECIAL and wonderful spirit who inspired many other's lives that she was connected to. We all will love her memory, for every day we shall live, and God willing, be the better for it!
Dianne is survived by her loving husband of 36 years, David; beloved mother, Jean; sister, Janis; and daughter, Casey.
