Diane Perez

Diane was born on July 19, 1959, in Brooklyn, New York, to John DiFilippi and Catherine DiFilippi (née Cassidy). She lived a life marked by strength, passion, and deep love for her family and her faith.

A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Diane is survived by her husband of 44 years, John Perez; her daughter, JoAnn Baker (née Perez) and husband Mark; her son, Jarrod Perez and wife Annaliese; and her daughter, Jennalyn Perez. She cherished her four grandchildren—Morgan (husband John), Luca, Nico, and Ayla—and her great-grandson, Noah. She was predeceased by her oldest son, John Perez, whom she longed to see again and is now reunited with him.

Diane was known for her strength, great sense of humor, and passionate spirit. She loved to help people as an Interior Designer, sing and listen to music, play cards, engage in creative writing, and lose herself in a good book. Above all, she loved fiercely and lived with a strong, unwavering faith in Christ that guided and sustained her.

Diane will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her—her warm heart, infectious laughter, and steadfast faith touched many lives. May she rest in the glory and peace of our Savior.
