RIP DIANE PAPAY (January 25, 1965 – November 13, 2020)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Friday at 3:31 p.m.

The decent was declared deceased at LAC + USC Medical Center, whose address is 2051 Marengo Street, Los Angeles, 90033. That’s about five miles from her stated residence.

This was classified as an accident instead of a natural death, presumably because it was the hypothermia that precipitated the death.
