Rosemary Diehl
December 28, 1933 — July 12, 2014
Rosemary Katherine Graham Diehl (80) died on Saturday, July 12, 2014 in Pearl, MS.
Rosemary was born December 28, 1933 in Brooklyn, New York to Mr. and Mrs. John Graham. She worked at Hanover Bank in Manhattan until her marriage to Roy A. Diehl on October 12, 1954.
After living in New York, Florida, and Rhode Island, they moved to Pearl, where she lived the last 44 years of her life. She made a home for her husband and six children, and faithfully attended Pearl Presbyterian Church. She was a wonderful wife and mother who instilled Godly values in her children and grandchildren.
She coordinated the Prayer Chain at her church, was a faithful prayer warrior, and the giver of “hugs” to everyone at church. She was an avid reader, cross-stitcher and seamstress. She loved to cross-stitch wedding and baby announcements for members of the church. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
She is survived by her husband, Roy, her children, Michael, Patrick, Kim Felder (Rickie), Kathy Bourgeois (John), Melissa Millis (Jim), Adam (Shauna), Linda Myers (Pete), Chansee Arnold, and seven grandchildren, two nieces and one nephew.
She is predeceased by her parents, John & Lucille Graham, her brother, Kenneth Graham, and her sister-in-law, Lois Diehl Griffin.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Pearl Presbyterian Church Building Fund, 2933 Old Brandon Road, Pearl, MS 39208.
