On August 1, 2022 Diane Jeanette Andersen of Eden Prairie, Minnesota entered her heavenly home at age 80. She was preceded in death by her father Paul Ness, mother Florence Ness, and husband Donald. She is survived by her sister Sue (Phil) Foster, brother Dave Ness, 3 children Kristin (Miles), Sherry (Shjon), Mike (Lesli), and 6 grandchildren Kamryn, Jessen, Anna, Junior, Ashley, and Owen - along with many other supportive family and friends to whom we are forever grateful. Every good and perfect gift is from above, and for the gift of Diane we are particularly thankful. She embraced family, tradition, athletics, and music. She was an avid tennis player and loyal spectator of hockey, football, college basketball - you name it. Diane played piano, sang, led choirs of all ages, and mastered every Christmas carol in the books. She was slow in judgement and anger and quick in love and laughter. Her inner strength and quiet determination were on display until the end. We will never forget how she loved us, comforted us, encouraged us, believed in us, and made us laugh. Celebration of Life: September 9, 2022 at 11:00am, Vista Lutheran Church.
