Diana Smith Lischin graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a Bachelor of Science degree in Pharmacy in 1986. She worked part-time at Coats Pharmacy starting in 1980 and throughout her college career. Although she moved to the Northeast after graduation, she made her way back home in 1988 to work in the family pharmacy and assumed full ownership in 2005. She is originally from Willow Springs but now resides on a family farm in Harnett County. She is married to Brian and has two daughters, Elyssa and Mahlon who both work in the pharmacy. She considers herself to be very lucky to work for herself in a small town and to have developed long-lasting and meaningful relationships with both customers and staff.
