Diane Nolan Obituary
We are sad to announce that, on February 5, 2026, Diane Nolan (Milton, Massachusetts) passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Harry Persson and Dorothy Persson (McDermott). She is survived by: her siblings, Priscilla Persson of Quincy, Gerard Persson (Maureen) of Woburn and Susan Egan (Leo) of Braintree; her goddaughter Caitlin Egan; her granddaughter Susan Nolan (Ivan Bojanic) of Jersey City, NJ; her children, Kathleen Hanna (Jeff) of Westwood, NJ, James Nolan (Colette) of Wellesley, MA, David Nolan (Kelli) of Medfield, MA and Michael Nolan (Jenna Weathers) of Watertown, MA.; and her grandchildren, Liam, Nolan Hanna, James, Zachary, Margaret, Victoria, Harry, Sammy, Abigail and Emmet Nolan.
Hilariously and ironically, although she eschewed sweets throughout her life, she became obsessed with Dunkin's Strawberry Frosted Donuts with Sprinkles ever since the pandemic waned.
To honor her love ofdogs, gifts in her memory may be made to Schultz's Guest House in Dedham (sghrescue.org; you may add her name in the donation notes section).
