Diane Cilent i Walks On Veterans' Activist was only 56. By Ron Karten Diane Louise Cilenti, 56, of Sheridan, died on June 11. She sat out a lunch with colleagues in Chemult, Washington on her way back from a Veterans conference in Reno covering issues, and when her col leagues returned to the car, Cilenti had passed on. Cilenti has long been well-regarded in Veterans Circles, since she had worked as Veterans Services Officer for Yamhill County since 1995. In that capacity, she helped Vets navigate the bureaucracy to enjoy all the benefits they had coming. She helped with transpor tation, when that was necessary, and she helped with Vets' tax issues as well as appeals on claim rejections. "Such a driving force," said Tribal Elder and recently retired head of the Northwest Indian Veterans Association (NIVA) Gene LaBonte. She was "a most dedicated worker for the Veterans, She believed a Veteran is a Veteran is a Veteran. She'd have had a very hard time without her husband, Tom Cilenti, her driver. As Marce Norwest said, 'What an awesome couple.""
