Diane Veatch, aged 62, of Fairdale, Kentucky, left this world on Sunday, January 11, 2026. She was a vibrant soul who brought joy and laughter into the lives of those she loved.
As a devoted wife, mother, and mamaw, Diane's warmth and spirit were evident in every interaction. Whether she was baking her famous treats, enjoying an exciting night at the theater, playing golf or softball, weekly board and card game nights with her family, Diane embraced life with a childlike enthusiasm. She loved spending quality time with her furry companions and indulging in her fondness for reality TV. Her passion for sharing meals at Texas Roadhouse, savoring bourbon balls, and enjoying Seagrams with her grandchildren created cherished memories that her family will hold dear.
Born on September 5, 1963, in Louisville, Kentucky, to Everett and Barbara Keeling, Diane was a light in the world. Preceded in death by her beloved parents and husband, Mark Veatch, she is survived by her loving daughters, Chastity Marie (James) Sherrard and Barbara Kristene Kinser; her treasured granddaughter, Brooklyn Veatch; grandsons Nathan, Ryan, and Nick Kinser; her step-mother, Charlotte Keeling; and many extended family members and friends who will remember her with great affection.
