She was born on October 4, 1947, in Natchez, Mississippi, to the late Percy Arnold and Fannie Huber Arnold. Diane was proud of her upbringing and heritage, raised in a strong Christian home with deep roots in faith. Her father and other family members were preachers, and she often spoke with pride of her grandmother’s Native American heritage.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

On Thanksgiving Day in 1965, she married the love of her life, Larry Loyd Graham, Sr. This year would have marked 62 years of marriage. Diane was a devoted wife, a loving mother, and a cherished grandmother who adored her children and grandchildren.<\/span><\/p>\n

Diane was known for her joyful spirit. She was always smiling, never complained, and remained content with what she had. She found great happiness in simple things-being outdoors, going for walks, and enjoying flowers.<\/span><\/p>\n

After moving to Hohenwald, Diane began working at Henry I. Siegel’s. Though she was initially hesitant to rebuild her clientele as a beautician, the relationships she formed there allowed her to continue doing what she loved-cutting hair. She later worked as a CNA, where she found great fulfillment in bringing joy and comfort to residents in the nursing home.<\/span><\/p>\n

She was a faithful member of the Assemblies of God in Hohenwald.<\/span><\/p>\n

Diane is survived by her loving husband, Larry Graham, Sr.; her sons, Loyd (Tammy) Graham and Brad (Sandy) Graham; her sisters, Sue (Dickie) King of Jackson, Mississippi, and Patsy Woods of Baton Rouge, Louisiana; seven grandchildren, Landon Graham, Lucas (Shelby) Graham, Keeley Graham, Aiden (Mattie) Graham, Zachary (Jordaan) Shaddy, Travis (Charmayne) Shaddy, and Cody (Deanna) Tenison; and ten great-grandchildren.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her brother, Roger Arnold, and her grandchild, Bailey.<\/span><\/p>\n

A graveside service will be held on Thursday, May 7, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at Lewis County Memorial Gardens.<\/span><\/p>\n

Diane will be remembered for her gentle spirit, her unwavering faith, and the love she shared so freely with all who knew her.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
