Racine – Diane Laurine Biddle, age 69, passed away unexpectedly, yet peacefully, at Lincoln Village Convalescent Center on Friday, June 28, 2013.

Diane was born in Racine on January 17, 1944 to the late Raymond W. and Julitta (nee: Thielen) Biddle. After attending St. Catherine's High School, she became employed with Wisconsin Electric. Later, Diane proudly went to work for her brother's company, R&B Grinding, from where she retired.

Surviving are her daughter, Laurel (Dustin) Franz; grandsons, Logan and Griffin; brother, Raymond (Marilyn) Biddle, Sr.; and by numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends – too numerous to mention all by name.

In keeping with Diane's wishes, cremation will take place and services will be private.
