Diana Marie Swanson Billinger, Wife, Mom, MomMom, GiGi, Daughter, Sister, Aunt, Cousin, Friend, plus an abundance of love – That's all contained in that little dash. 80 plus years of living and loving that exploded from a package standing just shy of five feet tall. The joy and love radiating from that little body engulfed, and at times, overwhelmed anyone she came in contact with. Cliché as it may be (and a song title to boot), to know her is to love her. Born into a loving family, she spent her eighty years nurturing and expanding it to include as many of us as possible, and we are all privileged and blessed to have been invited along for the ride. We will all miss her, but we are so very much richer for being able to say that Diana Marie Swanson allowed us to be a part of her wonderful life and family. Diana was predeceased by her parents William Henry Swanson Jr. and Carmella Cecilia (Sis) Scarpato Swanson. Her brothers and sisters-in-law William H. III (Bo)(Hope Meekins), John J., Matthew (Thelma Rinaldi),Donald J. (Hildegarde Seigart), Bernard (Stump) (Mary Chandler), Jimmy Ciprani, and her sister Gloria. Survivors: Her best friend and adoring Husband: James (Jim) Billinger, her sons and daughters: Bobby and Christine (Salo) Diehl, Billy and Linda (Dempsey) Diehl, Joe and Hope (Kunze) Diehl, and Paul and Bonnie Kessler; her grandchildren: Justin and Heather Diehl, Brittany and Francesco Bellei, Joe and Morgan Diehl, Jenn and Craig Klekman, Bill Diehl, Sean Diehl, James Diehl and Ashley Shain, Bethany Diehl, Brayden Diehl, and Nathan Diehl; her great-grandchildren: Alice Mae Diehl, Chiara, Alessio and Dario Bellei, Danielle Diehl and Madi Mock, and Ella and Bo Klekman. her brother and sisters-in-law: Mary Jo (Billinger) Lawler, Al and Patricia Billinger, Dora (Krause) Hudgins as well as many many nieces, nephews and cousins.
