Diane M.

Nisbett

Warren - Diane M. Nisbett, 92, of Warren, passed away peacefully on Friday afternoon, November 6, 2026, at St. Joseph Hospital, surrounded by her family and memories of a life well lived.

Diane was born on January 14, 1934, in Warren, Ohio, a daughter of the late Joseph and Mary Elizabeth (Kosinsky) Halas. A lifelong resident of the area, Diane was a proud graduate of Warren G. Harding High School and continued her education at Kent State University, where she earned a two-year degree in secretarial studies.

Throughout her working years, Diane was employed by Accordino and Butch Chiropractic, where she dedicated many years of faithful service. While she took pride in her work, her greatest devotion was always to her family. Diane was a loving wife, mother, and homemaker who devoted herself wholeheartedly to caring for her beloved husband, Jack, and their three children. Her home and family were the center of her world, and she found her greatest happiness in the everyday moments they shared.

Diane had a spirited love of sports and especially enjoyed cheering on The Ohio State Buckeyes and Cleveland Indians. She was also an active member of the Beta Sigma Phi social sorority and generously gave her time as a volunteer with the Women's Auxiliary of St. Joseph Hospital, reflecting her caring nature and desire to give back to her community.

Above all else, Diane treasured her family. She never missed an opportunity to support her grandchildren at their many activities and accomplishments, taking great pride in watching them grow and flourish. Whether attending a family gathering, sharing a telephone conversation, or simply enjoying time together, Diane cherished every moment spent with those she loved. Her warmth, devotion, and genuine interest in the lives of her family created memories that will be treasured for generations. She leaves behind a legacy of love that will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew her.

Diane's memory will be forever cherished by her children, Dennis (Bette) Nisbett of Cortland, Mary Beth (Jim) Brutz of Cincinnati, and Denise (Tim) Riley of London, Ohio; her grandchildren, Daniel Nisbett, Ryan (Kristin) Nisbett, Maria Brutz (Ben Suer), Michael (Maria) Brutz, John (Sarah) Riley, and Luke (Liz) Riley; and her great-grandchildren, Xander, Arrie, and Oliver, with three more little blessings on the way. She also leaves behind her nephew, Greg Reese (Luanne Evans), along with many extended family members and dear friends who will miss her deeply.

In addition to her parents, Diane was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Jack Nisbett, and her sister, Barbara Reese.
