In addition to his parents and step-father, he was preceded in death by his sister, Nancy Diller Burks.  

He is survived by his son, Caleb Diller, and wife, Ashli, of Marlinton; daughter, Susanna Diller-Yoke, and husband, Blair, of Louisville, Kentucky; two grandchildren, Brayden and Koda; longtime friend, Catherine Rowe; and his faithful companion, Pug.

Visitation for friends and family will be from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday, March 4, 2023, at Lantz Funeral Home in Buckeye.
In keeping with his wishes, the body will be cremated.
