Diane F. Kaye passed away on August 20, 2017, just hours short of her 91st birthday. Diane was born on August 21, 1926 to the late Francis and Frances (Mierzwa) Pottner. In 1945, Diane married her long-time crush, the paperboy, (late) Anthony Kaye. They were married for 54 years until his passing in 1999. Diane spent the last portion of her working career at Menasha Utilities doing accounting/payroll. In her free time, she enjoyed playing cards with her husband and friends, playing scrabble and reading. She also enjoyed her time spent frosting christmas cookies, making apple sauce, baking breads and especially, baking apple pies.
