Dianna Mccallister

Dianna Lynn McCallister, 75, of Corning, Arkansas, peacefully passed away at her home on Sunday, September 14, 2025, surrounded by her loving family.

Born on December 16, 1949, in Aurora, Illinois, Dianna devoted her life to her family and home. A proud homemaker, she found joy in simple pleasures—whether playing bingo, turkey hunting, or expressing her creativity through pottery. Above all, Dianna cherished time spent with her loved ones. She was a devoted "Mawmaw" and "Great Mawmaw," roles she held with immense pride and affection. She was of the Baptist faith.

On March 12, 1971, she married James Lee McCallister. He preceded her in death.

Dianna is survived by her children: Leona (Greg) Elliott of Alrich, MO.; Tammy (Raymond) Lowe of Corning; AR.,  Angel (David) Allsbrooks of Potosi, MO.; Buffy McCallister of Naylor, MO.; and James (Amy) McCallister of Corning, AR.; She also leaves behind her brothers, Gary and Delbert Fleming; grandchildren: Angelica, Dylan, Savanna, Caleb, Cherysh, Amber, Brittney, Trevor, Morgan, Maisa, and Aaliyah; great-grandchildren: Rylnn, Eli, Amia, Victoria, Zoey, Ristol, Willow, Destiny, Parkerlove, and Ara Grace; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

In addition to her beloved husband, she was also preceded in death by her parents, Hubert and Thelma (Demoss) Millard; her brother, Rick Fleming; her sister, Helen Smith; and her grandson, Jared Elliott.

A memorial service will be held by the family on September 27, 2025 at 3 p.m. at Bacon Park in Poplar Bluff, MO.
