On Tuesday, April 16, 2024, at Christchurch Hospital, Diane passed away peacefully with her family by her side. Aged 82 years.
Diane was a dearly loved and devoted wife to Alan, a much loved mother to Louise, Andrew, and Emma, and a cherished mother-in-law to Jeremy Forster (Amsterdam) and Michelle Johns (Brisbane). She was also a dearly loved Nan Nan to Eve and Tilda (Amsterdam). We would like to express our gratitude to the Respiratory team and the staff of Ward 19, Nurse Maude District Nurses, and Respiratory Physiotherapists Sue, Trish, Catherine, and Carolyne for their exceptional care over the years. The family kindly requests that messages be addressed to Johns Family, PO Box 35 Rangiora, 7400. A Private Service has been held. In lieu of flowers, the family invites you to honor Diane's memory by considering a donation to Respiratory Research, Christchurch. Contributions can be made online at
