At 76, Diane has been playing the piano since age 9 and singing with the VSA Chorus since 2009. She has never taken a break from singing or performing. A Montrose resident for 38 years, she majored in music in college. After graduating, she and her husband, Charlie, joined the Peace Corps and taught in Ghana for two years: Charlie taught business, and Diane taught music. After returning to the U.S., she taught in Illinois for two years before moving to
Colorado, where she spent 22 years teaching at Columbine Middle School.
Diane loves performing a variety of music with the chorus. Fun fact: At 5'1", she played high school basketball in Iowa and enjoys life in beautiful Colorado.
