Diane E. Coller (Lewis) Service Information

Diane Elizabeth Lewis Coller, died peacefully on January 1, 2023 at Neshaminy Manor. She was 75 years old.

Diane was the wife of the late Richard W. Coller, who passed in 1995 after 26 years of marriage; she will be missed by Rich Smith of Doylestown, her loving boyfriend for many years.

Born in Sturgis, Michigan in 1947, Diane was the daughter of the late Walter Lewis and Edna Zabel Lewis. She was the sister of the late Donna Breece-Cole, Elaine Weaver and Eileen Davidson.

Diane grew up in the small town of Sturgis, Michigan where she graduated from Centreville High School in 1965.  She found a love for singing early in life and frequently performed in school musicals and was a longtime member of the Glee Club.  She also participated in her local 4H club where she served for 3 years.  Diane met Richard Coller while he was stationed at Ellsworth Air Force Base in Rapid City, SD.  After a whirlwind romance, they married in 1969 and relocated back to Rich’s home in Warrington, PA.  It was there that they started their family and remained happily married for 26 years before Rich passed in 1995. 

Diane thoroughly enjoyed attending both of her son’s sporting events where she rarely missed a baseball, soccer, football or rugby game, a karate event or a horseshow for the better part of 20 years.  She was also a voracious reader and especially loved being out in nature looking at wildlife and flowers.  Diane found her second family at Christ’s Lutheran Church.  She attended church religiously every Sunday while also singing in the Choir well into her 60’s.  Her 6 grandkids became her priority later in life and she could often be found babysitting, watching their sporting events and in general enjoying their company. 

Diane will be remembered by all who knew her for her pleasant and calm demeanor, her great sense of humor, and her generosity.

Diane will be missed by her sons and daughters-in-law, Brian and Julie Coller and Matt and Janelle Coller; her grandchildren, Jack, Halle, Luke, Morgan, Tristan and Reese. She is also survived by her brother and sister-in-law, Howard and Norma Lewis; her sister-in-law and her husband, Beverly and Bill Campbell; many nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family in Michigan.

Relatives and friends may greet Diane’s family at Christ’s Lutheran Church (700 Pennsylvania, Ave, Oreland, PA 19075) on January 13, 2023 from 9 am, until the start of her Funeral Service at 10 am.

Her interment will follow at George Washington Memorial Park (80 Stenton Avenue, Plymouth Meeting, PA 19462).
