It is with great sadness that the family of Diane Elaine Creaser, 72, of Riverport announces her passing on Wednesday, November 8, 2017 at the QE II Health Sciences Centre, Halifax with her family by her side.

Born in Feltzen South, she was a daughter of the late Walter and Luetta (Zellars) Corkum.

In her early years, Diane worked for Riverport Seafoods before staying home to raise her family which was her pride and joy. She enjoyed shopping, gardening, baking and helping with the church suppers at Trinity United Church where she was a member. She adored her Siamese cats, Simon and Baby, but nothing could match the love and devotion she felt for her family. The faithful support she gave to her children and grandchildren in all their endeavors will be deeply missed and they will cherish their memories of her always.

Her tremendous strength and courage will be instilled in all her loved ones forever.

Diane is survived by her husband, William “Billy”; daughter, Darlene (Tom) Mills, Riverport; son, Marc (Tami), Bayport; grandchildren, Katelyn, Scott (Melanie), Max; great-granddaughter, Hailey; brother, Sherman (Mary Ann) Corkum, Feltzen South and her life-long family friend, Eugene Massey.

She was pre-deceased by an infant son, Scott William and her brother, Lynn Corkum.

Funeral arrangements are under the direction of the Dana L. Sweeny Funeral Home, 11213 Hwy. #3, Lunenburg. A Memorial Service to celebrate Diane’s life will be held 2:00 pm on Monday at Trinity United Church, Rose Bay, Rev. Heather Ferrier officiating. Interment will be in Feltzen South Cemetery, Feltzen South.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to SHAID Tree Animal Shelter, Diabetes Canada, the Riverport and District Fire Dept. or a charity of choice.
