Yvonne Diehm, age 78, entered into heaven on Wednesday, March 9, 2016 at Magnolias of Lancaster. Born April 30, 1937, she was the daughter of the late Raymond & Ella Worley and was a 1955 graduate of Manheim Central High School.

She is survived by her husband of nearly 60 years, Glen L. Diehm of Lititz. Yvonne's children are: Lynn Gurliacci (John) of Sparrowbush, NY; Beth Fenton (Jim) of Lancaster; Glen Diehm Jr. (Elizabeth) of Lebanon; James Diehm (Joan) of Manheim; and Mark Diehm of St. Charles, MO. Also surviving are Yvonne's beloved 12 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren and her sister, Verna Long (of Manheim). She was preceded in death by her sister, Laura Obetz.

Yvonne truly enjoyed being a homemaker and raising her children. She shared her gifts of creativity (quilting, sewing, cooking, baking, ceramics, gardening, home décor) with everyone. She genuinely cared for and loved relating to people. She knit together her large family and made holidays and family reunions particularly special. Yvonne & Glen enjoyed RV traveling, including many trips to see Penn State football games.

The entire Diehm family wishes to give heartfelt thanks to the staff at Magnolias & Grane Hospice, whose loving care smoothed her long, challenging journey.

A Celebration of Life service for Yvonne will be held on Saturday, April 2, 2016 at 11:00 AM at Forest Hills Mennonite Church, 100 Quarry Road, Leola, PA 17540. Guests may greet the family from 10 AM – 11 AM. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, please honor Yvonne's memory with a gift to the Lancaster Parkinson's Support Group, P.O. Box 251, East Petersburg, PA 17520.
