DIANNE D. THATCHER

Dianne D. Quinn – Thatcher, age 74 passed away on Friday, December 8th, 2017 in her home surrounded by family after a battle with cancer.

She was born on July 6, 1943 in Forest Township to Milton and Adelaide Duval, one of 12 children. Dianne grew up in the Connorsville area and attended White Birch Grade School and went on to graduate from Glenwood City High School. She had several jobs throughout her life and made many friends. She thoroughly loved her twenty years on the family farm. Also, she worked at convenience stores in Knapp and Downing, waitressed in Woodville, various cleaning jobs, McMillan Electric, Andersen Windows and Cardinal Distribution in Hudson. Dianne loved country music, riding horse and painting. Give her a can of paint and put a paint brush in her hand and things got painted. She loved watching the Green Bay Packer games with her family and playing football at half time of the game in the yard. Also, she loved attending her grandchildren’s many sporting events, concerts, and programs.

Dianne is survived by her three sons: Ron and Carol Quinn, Jesse and Shawna Quinn, Greg and Janet Quinn; many grandchildren, great-grandchildren; four brothers and five sisters. She was preceded in death by her parents and two sisters. 

When Dianne was in her 60s she proudly bought a 1998 Mustang convertible. She would put in a country music CD and down the road she’d go. Dianne’s final wish was to pass in her home with peace and dignity with her sons by her side. Her wish was fulfilled.

A Celebration of life service will be held on Saturday, December 16, 2017 at the Anderson Funeral Home in Glenwood City from 2 to 6 p.m.
