The family would like to thank the many people who cared for Diane during the three years she lived with breast cancer, including Dr. Kari Wisinski and team at UW Health in Madison, as well as the healthcare teams at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in Appleton and Mercy Hospital in Oshkosh.

In honor of Diane’s commitment to rescue dogs, the family asks for donations to the Oshkosh Humane Society in lieu of flowers.
