Luther Home of Mercy

06/18/2026

After 20 years of dedicated service with Luther Home of Mercy, Diana is beginning a well-earned, new chapter in her life. Throughout her years at LHM, Diana has touched countless lives through her compassion, kindness and unwavering commitment to the individuals she served.

The impact Diana has made is evident in the many clients and coworkers who were brought to tears as they said their goodbyes. Her ability to build meaningful relationships, offer support, and make others feel valued has left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know her.

While Diana will be greatly missed, her legacy of care and dedication will continue to be felt throughout Luther Home of Mercy. We are incredibly grateful for the 20 years she shared with us and for the difference she made in so many lives.

Diana, thank you for your years of service, friendship, and compassion. We wish you nothing but happiness, good health, and success as you begin this exciting new chapter. You will always be a part of the LHM family and will be missed by many.
