Diana W. Morgan, 86, of Wilkes-Barre, was called home to the Lord on January 16, 2025, after a brief illness. She died peacefully with her son Dave, daughter-in-law Julie, and sister Maxine by her side.

Diana worked in nursing and nursing education for her professional life at the Wilkes-Barre General Hospital, Wilkes College, and Luzerne County Community College, among others.

Diana was a faithful member of First Presbyterian Church, serving as elder and deacon and as a member of their women's association. She was also a longtime member of the Torch Club.
