Diana Lynn Junkersfeld Macias, 60, of Pocahontas, AR went to her heavenly home surrounded by her loving family, on March 15, 2025, at St. Bernard’s Medical Center following complications from her illness.
She was born October 29, 1964, in Pocahontas, AR, daughter of Jerry Allen and Hannelore (Nagel) Junkersfeld. Diana graduated from St. Paul High School and was of the Catholic faith. Diana’s life revolved around her children and her fur baby, Sophie. She loved the outdoors, especially rock hunting. She also enjoyed an occasional Bigfoot hunt and sharing any Bigfoot stories worth passing along. She also loved her 1967 red step side Ford truck that her daddy gave her as her first vehicle. Diana also had a great love for music that spanned from Tom Petty to Jelly Roll and we cannot forget Blake Shelton. Diana was the most loving and caring person, and you always felt that love. She was so compassionate and could always make you laugh.
Diana was preceded in death by her parents, Jerry and Hannelore Junkersfeld; two infant children, Christian and Jessica; grandparents, Alvin and Evelyn Junkersfeld; and mother-in-law, Eva Snow
Survivors include her husband, Greg Macias of Springdale, AR; two children, Emily (Hunter) Pankey and Seth (Chastity) Macias both of Pocahontas, AR; four brothers, Terry Junkersfeld of Jonesboro, AR, Keith Junkersfeld of Warm Springs, AR, William (Vickie) Junkersfeld of Imboden, AR, and Clint (Cindy) Junkersfeld of Pocahontas, AR; sister, Tammy (Vic) Fields of Pocahontas, AR; sister-in-law, Julie (Tony) Mason of Batesville, AR, brother-in-law, Sonny (Rukshana) Macias of Columbia, SC; honorary children, Savanha Keys of Doniphan, MO and Gage Macias of Walnut Ridge, AR; several nieces and nephews; and a host of other relatives, friends, and a world that will be a little dimmer without her here, but heaven sure shines so much brighter.
