With deep sadness we announce the passing of Dian Marie Boyle, age 87, with family at her side on November 12, 2025. Dian was born on May 31, 1938 to Fred and Genevieve (nee Ruhland) Buending in Milwaukee, WI; their first of three children.

Dian is survived by her husband of 63 years Daniel James Boyle - the love of her life. She is also survived by her beloved children Daniel Lee Boyle (62) and Kim Marie Boyle (59); her granddaughter Amy Larsen (Gunnar), with whom she's always shared a special bond; and her adored great-grandchildren Ryker and Coralie; all of whom she was unselfishly devoted to. She is further survived by her siblings Fred (Barbara) Buending and Jill Duszynski, and several other family members and friends who will miss her endlessly.

Dian cherished her family, loved birds, and enjoyed her puzzle books and computer games. She was a wonderful cook, had a remarkably creative mind when decorating for every holiday, and the house was always immaculate. She was truly an angel.

A celebration of life will take place on Saturday, November 22, 2025, at St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish in North Lake, Wisconsin (W314N7462 Mill Street, Hartland, WI 53029).Visitation will be 9:30 am to 11:00 am, with service starting at 11 am.
