Diana Streisand Kind, 93, the mother of singer and entertainer Barbra Streisand, died Saturday in a Los Angeles hospital. Kind died of complications from an accident she suffered in her home in November, said Streisand's publicist, Dick Guttman.
Kind was the daughter of a cantor and had a beautiful singing voice, which she passed along to her famous daughter.

Kind obituary--A caption accompanying an obituary of Diana Streisand Kind in some editions of the California section on Wednesday incorrectly stated that she sang as a cantor. It should have said she was a cantor's daughter.
Involved in a number of charitable causes, Kind worked in New York City schools for many years before moving to Los Angeles to be near Streisand.
