Diana Lynn (Faulkenberry) Collier

No Services Planned At This Time.

Diana Lynn Collier, known by everyone as Lynn, 66, of Skiatook, OK, was born January 21, 1959, in Poteau, OK, to Lee Boyce Faulkenberry and Doris Faye (Lazalier) Faulkenberry. She passed away January 4, 2026, in Skiatook, OK.

Lynn was an extraordinary woman, a single mother, she saw her daughter attend college, and become a surgeon, all while she was continuing her own education to become a critical care nurse, where she helped others survive devastating illnesses with a compassionate touch. That compassion extended into all parts of her life. She was always ready to stand by the underdog, to speak out when others were silent. Lynn was a loved daughter, sister, mother and grammy. Her soul has risen and now a peace in mind, body and spirit.

Goodbye my sister, dad’s hand will guide you.

She is survived by her daughter, Sara Collier-Atkins and husband, Charles; grandson, Eli Boyce Atkins; granddaughter, Raelee Dru Atkins; mother, Doris Faulkenberry; brother, Patrick Faulkenberry; uncle, Glen Lazalier; aunt, Susan Fagan and husband, Bill; cousins, Michelle, Nicole, Michael, Leanne, Chad and Megan; and many other relatives and friends.

She was preceded in death by her father, Lee Faulkenberry.

Arrangements were entrusted to Johnson Funeral Home, Sperry.
