(Augustine)
Dianne (Augustine) Weigetz, late of Abbotsford, passed away peacefully on May 18, 2011. Born February 10, 1923 in Fisher Branch, MB (Augustine) spent her time during WWII building planes. This is when she got the “nickname” Dianne and met her husband Wayne. The couple moved to Vancouver where they ran a dry cleaning business and began raising their family. Upon moving to Abbotsford Dianne settled in as a homemaker and Mom. She had many hobbies sewing, quilting, crocheting, gardening, and her favourite past time, reading. Along with her hobbies Dianne also worked part-time cleaning office, berry picking with us kids, and supervising as a field hand. Always ready to lend a hand and her ear for listening, friends and family would often just drop by for a coffee. At Menno Hospital where Mom spent her last days it was much the same. The staff and elders would stop in at Mom’s room just for a chat and wink. We thank all of you for your love and care for Dianne in her last home.
Dianne is survived by one sister Marge Barclay, daughters Donna Callahan, Kim (Darrell) Andruk, Darcie (Erwin) Doerfling, and grandchildren Mark, Vincent, Kurtis and Jasmine.
