Naomi Townsend Obituary

peaceful and caring soul left our world to meet our Father in eternal life on this Monday April 20, 2015.

Dianne was an ever giving person. As a mother, wife, sister, daughter, and grandmother she was always quick to offer love and support without ever asking for any in return.

In her final days it was our privilege to pay back in short for her life of giving. And we now long for the moment we are reunited.

Dianne leaves behind a mourning yet hopeful family in knowing the life she lived was done so well and with purpose. Our comfort is in knowing she is now realizing His reward for living this faithful life.

Dianne is survived by her husband David , daughter Pamela , and sons Charles and David Jr. along with 8 grandchildren. Dianne was preceded by husband Richard , parents Harold and Vaneta, sister Susan, and brother Martin. Her legacy is a family that takes to heart the ease of sharing their love with one another as she taught us so well.

Rosary Service will be at 9:00am with Funeral Services following at 10:00am Friday April 24 at St Patrick's Catholic Church 6455 Brook Park Drive Colorado Springs, CO 80918

In lieu of flowers Dianne requested that donations be made to the Sled Hockey for Disabled Athletes program with the Colorado Springs Amateur Hockey Association at:

We love and miss you mom.

David and Family, I was so sad to hear about Dianne's passing. From my days of working with her at HP/Agilent, I will always remember her as funny, smart and such a hard worker. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Am so sad to hear of her passing. Gruber (As she was always that to me) will be sorely missed. She was a awesome lady and awesome Manager. I always accused her of following me to CTD. Had many great years with her at HP and Agilent (CTD). Best to the family.

Condolences to Pam and the rest of the family from the Lang family. I remember my initial interview with the Computer department way back in 1985. I came in a little bit late because of traffic and Dianne told me that George Casteneda would be back in a minute. So, I interviewed with George and left. I was informed later that I got the job and to come on in to fill out more paperwork. I was talking to George and commented on his secretary. He started laughing and I asked him why? He said that she (Dianne) was not the secretary but the boss.... LOL !!! Dianne caught wind of that and she never let me live it down. We laughed together. She was an awesome manager and I will never forget her.
