Diane K. Marks

Diane Kathryn Marks (Strebe) of Neenah, WI, left this earthly realm on September 20th, 2024, unexpectedly after a long battle with heart and breathing issues. She was 67 years old.

Diane was born on August 19th, 1957, in Neenah, WI, to the late Paul and Barbara (Christian) Strebe. On July 16th, 1976, Diane married Randy Marks. Together, they brought three children into the world: Stacie Marks-Ayala, Amy (Michael) Guerrini, and Randy Jr. (Lina) Marks. Diane’s children gave her the proudest joy of grandchildren – Kristen (Matthew) Yount, Tarah Wimberly, Mathew Wimberly, Joey Wimberly, Eddie Ayala, Michaela Guerrini, Tyler Guerrini, Anthony Guerrini, Henry Marks, Annabell Marks, and Eliza Marks. Diane also has three great-grandchildren – Bowie, Lylah, and Lincoln.

Diane brought many wild and fun memories to those around her, from family to friends. She was a very strong-minded person, who was and will always be proud of her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. In her later years, Diane enjoyed coloring games, watching Dateline TV shows, and chit-chatting with family and friends. Diane was undoubtedly a dog lover. Whenever you visited, she could almost always be found with at least one pooch in her lap, being loved on.

Diane will be deeply missed by her husband, Randy; her children, Stacie Marks-Ayala, Amy (Michael) Guerrini, Randy Jr. (Lina) Marks; her grandchildren; her great-grandchildren; her siblings, Thomas (Rhonda) Strebe, James (Irma) Strebe, Paul (Marsha) Strebe, Lynda (Jeremy) Johnson; her beloved furry friends; as well as many nieces, nephews, other extended relatives, and dear friends.

Diane is preceded in death by her parents, Paul and Barbara Strebe, and her sister, Patricia Krause. In respect to Diane’s wishes, she will be cremated, and a private celebration of life will be held.
