Diane Warbritton Kelley, passed away on January 11, 2026, at the age of 78. She was born on October 28, 1947, in Huntingdon, Tennessee, and passed away in Jackson, Tennessee. Her life was a testament to the power of kindness and the strength found in family bonds.

She was born to the late Jerry Warbritton and Kathryn Seavers Robinson, Diane carried the torch of their legacy with unwavering grace. After graduating from Humboldt High School in 1965, Diane touched numerous lives through her work, initially at NCR in Humboldt and eventually as the esteemed office manager for the Jones Companies. Her contributions to the workplace were marked by a rare combination of efficiency, compassion, and mentorship.

Diane was joined in matrimony to her devoted husband, Archie Kelley, of Milan, Tennessee. Their union brought together a loving blended family that included Diane's son, Todd Dozier (Tamara) from Paducah, Kentucky; daughter, Amy Drake (Jeff) of Jackson, Tennessee; and stepson, Greg Kelley (Mary-Ann) of Milan, Tennessee. As a matriarch, she was a source of unwavering support and wisdom, leaving behind a legacy through her cherished grandchildren, Taylor and Sydney Dozier; Madison Armour (Nick); Tristan Drake; Erin Diehm (Joshua); and Alyssa Carter. Diane's heart found even more room to grow with the arrival of her great-grandchildren, Memphis McGarity and Rayne Armour, whose lives were brightened by her warmth and guidance.

A steadfast Christian, Diane was an active member of Chapel Hill Baptist Church, wherein her faith was as resolute as it was gentle. Her spirituality was the cornerstone of her existence, giving her strength and serenity throughout her earthly journey.

Diane's zest for life extended to the simple joys of gathering with the "Lunch Bunch," her classmates from the 1965 cohort. Her laughter would echo in the midst of old stories and shared memories, a sound as comforting as it was infectious.
