Patricia Dianne Howard was born October 22, 1948 in Eldorado, Arkansas and passed away May 26, 2026 in Shreveport, Louisiana at Holy Angels where she called home for the last 55 years.

Dianne enjoyed coloring, drawing, and playing cards. She loved her birthday celebrations with family and always looked for those dollar bills in the cards. She was in several programs at Holy Angels and loved when she was able to dress up for the roles she played. She also loved her nurses that took care of her throughout her years there.

Dianne was preceded in death by her mother & Step-father, Kathryn & Richard Payne, Father & Step-Mother, Pete & Nancy Howard, and Brother, Bubba Howard.

Left to cherish her memory are her brother, Lane Howard, along with nieces, nephews, and a host of special cousins.

The family would like to thank the Ladies of Madonna Hall at Holy Angels for the loving care they gave Dianne and The WK Hospice nurses that took care of her.

A Celebration of Life honoring Dianne will be held Thursday, June 4, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 12pm at Auld’s Funeral Home.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Holy Angels, 10450 Ellerbe Road, Shreveport, La, 71106, in memory of Dianne Howard.
