Our beloved matriarch, Dianne DeGeorge Kirsch, entered peacefully into Eternal rest, on January 20, 2021. She is joyfully united again with her youngest child, Kendra. Dianne was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on August 6, 1942, to parents Nicholas and Eunice DeGeorge.

Dianne grew up in New Orleans and was graduated from St. Joseph Academy. At the young age of 14, she met the love of her life, Eugene L. Kirsch. They married and raised their five children in Houston. They celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary on January 7, 2021. Dianne served as an officer in the Human Resource department of various banks where she was a leader and mentor to many colleagues.

Dianne was the notorious DeeDee to 14 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. It was the joy of her life to witness and be involved in the numerous birthdays, holidays, graduations, weddings, Catholic sacraments, ball games, recitals, school projects, and much more. Her grandchildren could always count on their DeeDee to have a hot meal and words of wisdom when they arrived at her house.

Dianne opened her heart and touched the lives of all that crossed her path. Her life was defined by her strong faith in God, her love and devotion for family, her strong work ethic, and her unwavering generosity and service to her loved ones.
