Diane June Meikle, of Fowler, Ohio, went home to be with the Lord on Monday, May 20, 2019 at 7:39 PM while a patient at the Trumbull Memorial Hospital, Warren, Ohio, following an extended illness. She was 64.

Diane was born in Warren, on October 14, 1954, a daughter to Arnold M. & June (Dilley) Meikle.
