Diane Kay Curran, beloved wife of Stan Curran and mother of four children, passed away on June 21, 2016, in Sandpoint, Idaho. She will be inurned in Kelseyville, Calif., at a later date.

Diane was born in Inglewood, Calif., on Jan. 17, 1933, to Roy and Lohene Boyd.

Diane leaves behind her husband of 62 years, Stan; her children, Michael (Denise) Kelseyville, Susie (Roy) of Benicia, Calif., Steve (Debbie) of Puyallup, Wash., Barbara (Bruno) of Merrimack, NH; eight grandchildren; and many great-grandchildren. She also leaves behind her former daughter-in-law, Linda Curran, of Houston, Texas.

Diane graduated high school in Chico, Calif., in 1950. She attended Kaiser Permanente School of Nursing in Oakland, Calif., graduating in 1954. Diane and her family relocated to Lake County in 1959.

She later graduated from Chico State University in 1985 with a BSN, PHN, and school nurse credential. She worked as a school nurse for 15 years.

She and Stan retired in 1991 and in 1996 they left Lake County to begin 11 years of full time RV travel over the U.S. and Canada.

Diane enjoyed making afghans for her children and grandchildren. She collected coats for Coats for Kids, clothing for LOV Inc. and Kinderhaven until age slowed her down.

She considered her greatest and most rewarding achievement to be her four children, each of whom have achieved higher education and excelled in their chosen careers.

Eight years ago, Diane joined her First Lutheran Church family. She thoroughly enjoyed her family at First Lutheran.

There will be a service at First Lutheran Church at 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 25, officiated by Pastor Lori Morton and Pastor Steve Neuder.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Kinderhaven, 900 Spruce St., Sandpoint, ID 83864. Kinderhaven is a community organization dedicated to supporting children in crisis.

Family and friends are invited to sign Diane’s online guest book at www.coffeltfuneral.com .

Arrangements are entrusted to the care of Coffelt Funeral Service.
