We miss you dearly, dear Dianne 🦋 Heart thanks for all your healing gifts for so many, and for your friendship through so many and years , Lynn and family.
Diane Winne was my 92 year old fathers doctor at the vets home at Yountville. Ben Whichard was his name. Dr. Winne died almost 2 years to the day my dad died. He would like that she joined him at the same hole he went through. They had the best relationship! He might tell her some things that might be wrong with his health and always followed that up with what she might give him to fix it up. To watch Dr. Winne and he come together during those meetings made my heart and the hearts of my brothers and sister very happy. Dr. Winne had a perfect rapport with her patients. Perfect. As my dad’s daughter, I adored Dr. Winne. I want to say to her surviving family, her wife and son; you had a jewel. A real jewel. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Winne-Gess Family,On behalf of the entire staff and residents at the Yountville Veterans Home we are deeply saddened by the news of her passing. Dr. Winne was an amazing doctor to so many countless veterans over the years. Many still alive because of the comprehensive care she provided up until 2015. God bless your family during this time of grief and loss. Her absence has and will continue to leave a void. Veterans talk about her to this day. She will be missed.Fondly and with love,Dr. Julie S.

Dianne's bread for our Weave of Faith communion was special, though i also have a fond memory of Oreos and Milk for one communion, which I'm sure tickled Dianne. The gift that Jason was for all of us – I remember holding him when he was an infant, which I'm sure gave me more than I gave his little self. Laughter and music sharing meals at Sandy and Dianne's home. BBQs on their back deck with the dogs and kids milling about. Many, many layers of love in our parallel chapters of life.
Once I visit you and Sandy. I never forget you are champion chef, so the food was so delicious. I appreciated wonderful hospitality. And also I admired you as achievement and love your family.Heidi Zimmer
