Diane Sangster
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of our beloved matriarch, Diane Sangster, who passed away on September 7 at the age of 89.
She is survived by her daughter Linda (Mark) Garrett, her grandchildren Matthew and Christina (Jeff Porter) Garrett, and her great-granddaughter and godchild Amelia Porter.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Harry and Lauretta DeMarzie, her brother Don DeMarzie, her sister-in-law Carol DeMarzie, and her grandnephew Daniel DeMarzie.
She was a faithful member of St John's Lutheran Church in Woodstock, and was generous, loving, adventurous, and wise. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
A private memorial will be held in her honor. In lieu of flowers, a donation to your local food pantry or animal shelter would be appreciated.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
