Diane Mittleider Obituary

Diane Mittleider passed away peacefully at her home surrounded by her family and close friends in Lodi on Christmas Day, 2010. She was 66. Born in Bowdle, South Dakota, to Irene and Eugene Mittleider, she has lived the past 28 years in Lodi where she cared for many needing help in their home. She was an active member of Temple Baptist Church and served as a corresponding secretary, and was in charge of sending birthday cards and other cards to those in her Sunday School, always including a special personal message in each card. She enjoyed cooking and baking – especially German favorites like kuchen, strudel, and cheese buttons. She was preceded in death by her parents. She is survived by her brothers: Dennis (Linda) Mittleider of Oregon, Jerry (Rose) Mittleider of Wyoming, sisters: Kathy (Joel) Fiechtner of South Dakota, Marge (Pat) McClanahan of South Dakota, Sandy (Bryan) Ewing of Bend, Oregon, 15 nieces and nephews and several great-nieces/nephews.

I am so sorry to hear of the Diane's passing. Her & I were roommates in Rapid city, SD while we ere going to National College of Business. There were 5 of us girls in the upstairs of a house. We certainly did have fun and I can just hear her mischevious laugh. What a beautiful woman! I'm sorry that we lost contact with each other. You all are in my prayers and may God enjoy Diane as I know she will still be looking after us. My love to her family.

I first met Diana at Temple Baptist church in a small group Bible Study-- she remained a special friend
to me and my husband ever since that time. Diana found such joy in serving others----taking care of the elderly in their homes, helping out wherever needed, and baking special German recipes to share with friends. She often talked about the German dishes that her family cooked and enjoyed when she lived at home. I will miss her phone call letting me know that she had just baked a batch of Kuchen. I will also miss her caring spirit--always interested in how my family was doing. I pray that her family will be comforted, knowing how much she was loved.

I was just talking about Diane the other day. I was telling them what a wonderful, caring person she was and how she took care of others. I am so sorry for you loss. Memories are the legacy of love and those who love will be reunited in eternity. Hold on to your memories, and let them guide you during this time of sadness. She made a beautiful impact on my life and set a good example for me. I am very glad she was in my life while I went to Temple Baptist and lived in Lodi.
