May 28, 1947-Nov. 20, 2023

 

Dianne Marie Antrim, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away at home surrounded by her family in her hometown of Niles, Michigan on Nov. 16, 2023. She was born on May 28, 1947, to Marshall and Vivian (Bennitt) Sheeley.
Dianne’s early life in Niles was filled with joy, simplicity and challenges. No challenge was too much for her, she would meet it head on. She was a diligent student who was attending college when she met the love of her life, Thomas Antrim Jr. Their love story was one of fairy tales, with Thomas sweeping Dianne off her feet and into a marriage that lasted 56 beautiful years. She found joy in baking, sewing, traveling, spending time with family and friends and watching westerns with her husband. She always met you with a smile and could make you laugh even when you didn’t want to. Dianne was a remarkable woman who will be missed by many.
Dianne’s love extended beyond her husband to their two children, Earl (Holly) Antrim and Erin (Keith) Hix; her six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. She cherished every moment spent with her family, creating memories that will forever be etched in their hearts. In addition, Dianne is survived by her sister, Patricia (Len) Houts.
Dianne has been cremated and her family will be remembering her privately.
Those wishing to make a memorial donation may do so in her memory to the Disabled American Veterans (DAV).
