Diane Motz Obituary

With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Diane Motz of Cincinnati, Ohio, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Diane left this world on May 13, 2026 at the age of 81, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Diane may no longer walk among us, her spirit lives on in the echoes of her kindness, the warmth of her embrace, and the light of her enduring love.

She was predeceased by: her parents, George Hawthorne and Natalie Hawthorne. She is survived by: her children, Julie Waldeck (Roger) and Mark D. Motz; her grandsons, John and Joe Waldeck; her brother Dan Hawthorne (Gail) of Marion, Iowa; and her godson Tommy Walsh (Nancy) of Pelham Manor, NY.
