DARLENE M. BLAISING (SICKAFOOSE), 71, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Sunday, Oct. 4, 2020, at Lutheran Life Villages, Pine Valley. Born in Fort Wayne, she was the third of four children of the late Walter R. and Celestine C. (Baker) Sickafoose and was a member of Holy Cross Lutheran Church. Darlene had a variety of business experience including NAVL, Aetna, Einhaus Group and most recently ENT Associates. In retirement, she loved spending time with family and friends, traveling when possible and researching and educating others about her family history.

She is survived by her brother and sister-in-law Brian A. and Jane E. (Pelz) Sickafoose of Fort Wayne; as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins. She was also preceded in death by her brother, Richard Sickafoose; and sister, Sharon (Fisher) Sickafoose.
