Diane Jeanne D’Arc Dionne – 78, North
River, passed away on Friday, August 18, 2023, at Colchester East
Hants Health Centre, Truro. Diane was born in Noelville, Ontario, and
grew up in Sudbury with her parents and siblings.
In her late teens she moved to Montreal where she met the
love of her life «her little French man, J.C.», who was in
the military. In 1964 they were married and in 1965 Diane began her
nomad military life by first heading off to Germany, then on to
Valcartier (Quebec), Ramore (Ontario), Nanaimo (British Columbia),
Senneterre (Quebec), and finally Debert. Diane was a stay at home
mother raising three beautiful children. Once the children were raised
she worked in many professions due to being a military spouse and the
frequent postings. She was active in the community, volunteering with
Canada Revenue Agency to assist seniors and low income people to file
their tax returns, and was also very much involved in Scouts and Girl
Guides over the years.
Diane was a very creative person. She was known for her
beautiful crocheted Victorian Christmas tree ornaments, christening
dresses for her grandchildren and knitted sweaters of all kinds for
her two daughters and all the grandchildren. Diane was also a terrific
cook that could put a meal together in a flash.
She will be remembered as a loving wife of 59 years to Jean
Claude «J.C.»; a great mother and role model to her
children, Michel (Sheila), Lunenburg; Suzanne (Lucien), Kingston,
Ontario; Sonya, North River; beloved grandmother to grandchildren,
Jean Luc, Isaac, Emily, Angelique, Megan, Mikaela, Josee, Andre. Also
left behind, with fond memories, are siblings Yvonne, Daniel, Irene,
Jeanette. Along with her parents, she was predeceased by her sister,
Elaine.
The family would like to thank all those involved in her
care, from the VON and the doctor and nurses at Cobequid Cancer
Clinic. Special thanks goes out to all those doctors and nurses from
the Palliative Care teams who took special care of her during her
final days; their kindness and compassion in a difficult time helped
ease the family’s pain.

Thursday, August 31, 2023, at Immaculate Conception Roman Catholic
