Mrs. Ann Louise C. (Reichwein) Diminick, 94, formerly of 335 W Avenue, Mount Carmel, PA, passed away on May 16, 2024, at Artis Senior Living in Lemoyne, PA.

She was born in Shamokin on July 1, 1929, the daughter of the late Edward and Anna "Sis" (Graham) Reichwein.

Ann Louise attended St. Edward's Grade School. She was a cheerleader and 1946 graduate of St. Edward's High School. Upon graduation, she worked in the payroll office of the Arrow Shirt Company in Shamokin. On October 7, 1950, she married Joseph "Jazz" Diminick at St. Edward's Church in Shamokin. They were happily married for 64 years until his passing on July 2, 2014.

Ann Louise was a resident of Shamokin until 1965 and resided in Mount Carmel until 2020. She moved to Lemoyne and remained there until her peaceful passing, surrounded by her family. She was a devout Catholic and member of the Altar Rosary Society at Divine Redeemer, who sought guidance and comfort from Mother Mary. She was a loving and supportive wife to her husband and devoted mother to her six boys. Not only a cheerleader for St. Ed's, but also for her husband and sons, she rarely missed a sporting event and attended hundreds of football games. She was the cornerstone of the still-expanding Diminick family and ensured a unique closeness among her grandchildren through the annual beach trips she organized for over twenty years. At those get-togethers and others, she was known to be the life of the party, invariably accompanied by her infectious laugh and smile. She was always among the last people left at the party, thanks to her youthful spirit and innate resilience that she brought to every facet of her life.

Ann Louise is survived by her six boys, 19 grandchildren, and 16 great-grandchildren: Gary and Patti (Basso) of Belmont, NC, and their children Noah and Lindsay and 2 children; Erin and Chris McGaughnea and 3 children; Sean and Shannon and 2 children.
