Diana K.
Coleman
Mar 13, 1944 — May 12, 2025
Diana K. Coleman, 81, of Rochester, was surrounded by her loving family when she passed away in the early morning of May 12, 2025, at her home.
On March 13, 1944, Diana Kay Kovach was born in Canton, Ohio. She was a treasured daughter of Andy P. and Dorcas Marie Bradley Kovach. Growing up she shared her childhood with a brother Steven.
On May 25, 1962, Diana married the love of her life, Mr. Oydel Coleman at the First Christian Church in Rochester. Together they enjoyed nearly 63 years of life's adventures. From their union came five wonderful children. The family tree continued to grow with the added blessings of two more generations.
To relax Diana enjoyed watching TV, keeping up with the "Soaps," watching game shows especially Wheel of Fortune and the Food Network. She loved painting her beautiful nails.
Oydel and Diana shared a strong faith and love for the Bible. Every evening, they devoted two hours to reading and studying the Bible therefore reading it entirely in less than two years. Paramount to Grandma Diana was her legacy. She was so very proud overseeing four generations and was always there to help them. She was delighted to get together with family, especially during the holidays and special family celebrations. This is where a lifetime of memories were made.
