Dianna also worked, for a short time, as a principal for the Oxford district promoting and implementing the Model Schools program developed by Dr. Willard Dagget.

She was born in Louisville and grew up in the Highlands. Her daughter currently lives in Louisville as well as Dianna's sisters, many nieces and nephews. As the Louisville headlines were screaming about the problems with child abuse, her daughter called and said, "Mom, they need you down here." That was all that it took, and she started packing.
