Dianne Louise Third

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Dianne Louise Third, peacefully on November 22, 2025, at the age of 82 at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Barrie, where there was always a family member by her side.

Mom was raised in Toronto by Edwin and Mae Perry alongside her four siblings Bob Perry, Bonnie McColl, Barb DeMeo, Doug Perry and Don Perry (predeceased), before moving up to Innisfil in 1968 with her husband Allen (predeceased 1996).

Mom spent her life raising four daughters, Kelly Collins (Mike, predeceased), Kimberly Richardson (Stephen), Kathryn McEllistrum (Scott), and Korry Harris. We can’t forget to mention Mom’s best friend, Tina Barrett, known as the fifth daughter. Mom is survived by 18 grandchildren.

Known to us as Mom but known to her friends and the rest of the family as Nanny. Mom was very strong willed, a good shoulder to listen, and loved to be around her many friends and family.

We all love you dearly, Mom, and until we meet again, rest in peace.

P. S. The last bottle of Busch is for you - cheers.

Arrangements have been entrusted with the Innisfil Funeral Home, 7910 Yonge Street, Innisfil (Stroud). Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Dianne's life will be held at a later date.
