Diane Kuemper was born in Davidson, Saskatchewan on August 4, 1948. She passed away June 5, 2023 in the hospital at Claresholm, Alberta.
Diane grew up and attended school in Davidson, Saskatchewan. She met and then married Dennis Kuemper on November 5, 1966. They soon started a family, raising 5 children. Moving often for work Diane and Dennis lived in many places over the years and had settled back in Saskatchewan in the early 1980’s, first in Craik, and then in Davidson in the 1990’s.
Diane had worked many years in the service industry, as a server and as a cook in numerous restaurants over the years. She then took a job as a custodian for the rink in Davidson until her retirement.
Diane was well known for her cooking and baking skills. It was more of a go by feel method of cooking and baking, rather than that of measurements. Her family and customers always enjoyed the meals she prepared. She loved her family, especially the little ones who she would spoil and offer to babysit. She was also kind and would often help those who were in need. She was a big “softy”, despite her often gruff exterior. She liked to laugh and even in her last days, when she was asked by one of the nurses if she needed anything… her reply was “a million dollars”
Diane had touched the lives of so many people, she will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace.
At Diane’s request, no formal funeral service will be held. A private family burial will take place at a later date.
