Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Diane G. Avery, age 88, of Vero Beach, passed away September 8, 2021.
Formerly a long-time resident of Delray Beach, Florida, Diane and her husband Al moved to Vero Beach in 2003.
Born in North Dakota, Diane’s family relocated to Ogden, Utah where she met her future husband, Al, who was stationed at Hill Air Force Base.
Soon the couple relocated back to Al’s hometown of Patterson, New Jersey for a few years before moving to Delray Beach in 1955 to establish and manage Pilkin Flower Farm on West Atlantic Avenue until 1973. Diane and Al both continued with their careers in Agricultural until retirement.
Diane is pre-deceased by her husband of 53 years, Alfred J. Avery, Sr., and sons Alfred J. Avery, Jr. and Gary W. Avery.
She leaves behind her son, Daniel F. (Robbin), daughters-in-law Karen Avery and Lois Avery, grandchildren Alfred J. Avery, III, Jennifer L. Whigham (Wes), great grandchildren Kody Whigham and Dylan Whigham and many loving nieces and nephews.
There will be a gathering of family and friends at the residence in Vero Beach for a Celebration of Life in loving memory of Diane on the afternoon of October 16th.
In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to VITAS Community Connection, 255 East Fifth Street, Suite 1200, Cincinnati, OH 45202.

Dan, Robbin and Avery Family. Our deepest condolences on the passing of Diane. Diane and Al were wonderful mentors and friends to my mother Maria Noguet. Mom worked alongside both your parents and remembers this time with great fondness. Diane helped find the house my Mom purchased in 1963 on Whatley Road and still lives there to this day. They saw the potential in a person and pushed for their best. May Diane rest in eternal peace. Your family are in our prayers. Barbara Noguet and Maria Noguet.
