Diane Laura Scoville (Andrew)

It is with heavy hearts that Diane’s family announces her passing on Friday, February 16th, 2024 at the Red Deer Hospital.

Diane Laura Scoville (Andrew), beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, auntie, great-auntie, sister and daughter, passed away peacefully after a short battle with cancer. She was surrounded by love, comfort and prayers from family and friends, with her daughter, Terra by her side.

Diane, was born on October 18, 1957 in Stettler, Alberta, to Cecil and Helen Andrew.

Diane leaves behind a legacy of love and devotion. She was an amazing mother to Terra Goddard (Shaun), Tanner Scoville and Stacey Scoville, a very proud grandmother to Corbin Goddard, Deacon Tulp, Chase Koester (Alycia) and great-grandmother to Logan Koester.

Diane will be sadly missed by her children, grandchildren and great-granddaughter, the “loves of her life”. Also mourning her passing is her dear mother Helen Andrew; brother Darryl Andrew (Gail); brother-in-law Dave Wierenga; and sons-in-law Shaun Goddard and Tony Tulp.

She will be fondly remembered by numerous nieces, (great), nephews (great), extended family, dear friends and her best friend, Tina Wallace (Jack).

Diane was predeceased by her son Tyler Michael Scoville, 1983, her father Cecil Andrew, 2009 and her sister Shelley Wierenga, 2022.

Diane spent her childhood in Blackfalds, Alberta enjoying countless hours of family time - horseback riding, sports, camping, and snowmobiling. She finished her schooling at Lacombe Composite High School and continued her education with a Business Course at Red Deer College. Diane started her lifelong career with the Government of Alberta at Michener Centre. She was a devoted, loyal and well-loved employee in the Administration Office for 32 years.

Diane was a hardworking single mother, truly devoted to her children. In between working two jobs, Diane managed to enjoy camping every summer, blasting Garth Brook’s tunes, reading, crafting with her sister, time at the family farm and family road trips to the United States. She also enjoyed watching her daughter’s baton twirling/parades, her son’s hockey and all her children’s League bowling. She always looked forward to her Friday night bowling league with great friends.

Diane thoroughly enjoyed her retirement years, spending time with her grandchildren, family, and her Mom. She enjoyed watching every Blue Jays game, baking, crafting, shopping, and decorating her condo for every holiday, especially Christmas. Diane loved staying in touch with her crew of Michener Gals, true friends until the end.

Diane will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Her warm smile, full body laugh, humour, kind heart, and unwavering love for her family and friends will forever be cherished.

The family would like to extend a sincere Thank You and appreciation to the many doctors, nurses, social workers and all other staff at Red Deer Hospital for the amazing care, comfort and love she received during Diane’s short stay. They provided great strength to our family, and it will never be forgotten.

At Diane’s request, there will be no funeral service. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, April 20th at the Haynes Community Hall in Haynes, Alberta at 2:00pm.

Our grief is immeasurable, but it’s the last act of love we give to our loved one.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to The Christmas Bureau or Tools for School in Diane’s memory.
