Age 71

NE Minneapolis

We lost Diane to a short but fierce battle with cancer. She always enjoyed going to a good concert and never missed a year at the Great Minnesota Get Together. You couldn’t ask her to step away from the tv when the Vikings were playing, always vocal about her dislike for those darn Packers. She loved her 2 dogs Milo and Daphne and becoming a grandma was such a gift to her. She started with and retired from Xcel Energy. She will be dearly missed but so many.

Preceded in death by her parents Phillip and Emily Durand.

Survived by her children Margaret (Armand) Santiago, Michael (Rosa) Abbett, grandson Michael JR, her brothers Shawn and Brian (Linda Davis-Johnson) Durand. Also many other wonderful family and friends that were with her until the end.

Details on the Celebration of Life to come.
