Diane DeHuff

1929 ~ 2020

Diane Palmer DeHuff, age 90, passed away peacefully at home in Naples, Florida, on June 26, 2020.  She was born September 8, 1929 in Newark, New Jersey, to Karl and Evelyn Pacanovsky.  Diane was married to George B. DeHuff Jr. for over 40 years who preceded her in death in 1993.

Diane was raised on the east coast where she went to nursing school and received her certification at Jefferson Hospital in Philadelphia.  She was very passionate about her nursing even after marriage and moving to the Midwest.

Diane loved Northern Michigan where she spent over 50 summers on Lake Michigan.  She also had a special place in her heart for the Leelanau Conservancy.  For many years she loved and was very dedicated to her volunteer work in the small town of Northport.  Her time in Florida was also special from her walks with friends on Marco Island, to spending time at dinner with friends at Moorings Park in Naples.

Diane is survived by her two sons and their wives, George and Karen and Douglas and Nancy.  Grandchildren, Jacqueline, George (Bo), Robert, Kevin, Blake, Kori, and Dylan along with six great grandchildren and many nephews and nieces, all of whom will miss her dearly. 

The family will hold a private service at a later date in memory of Diane.  Donations may be directed to the Leelanau Conservancy, PO Box 1007, Leland, MI 49654.
