Racine – Diane Marie Czarnecki, age 60, passed away unexpectedly in her sleep on Saturday, May 8, 2021.

Diane was born in Racine on March 7, 1961 to the late John and JoAnne (nee: Joskoff) Czarnecki, Jr. Although with struggles she endured with Rubinstein Syndrome since birth, Diane lived a beautiful, inspirational life….receiving her education from Racine Unified School District, was a valued employee at Career Industries, and tireless team member at Taco Bell for over 20 years, which she was very proud of.

Diane was a lifetime member of St. Edward's Catholic Church, where she shared her gift of voice in the choir and served as an Eucharistic Minister. A true people person, Diane was a social butterfly, who knew everything about everyone, but all the good stuff…not the negative. She stayed active with RADD (Recreation Activities for the Developmentally Disabled) especially with bowling and dancing. Diane was also a master of word searches & puzzles.

Surviving are her sisters & brothers, Andrea (Tim) Bertram, David (Valarie) Czarnecki, Chris (Barry) Henkel, Thomas Czarnecki and Karen (David) Brickler; nieces & nephews, Amy (Jake) Browarski, Alyssa (Marissa) Champion, Andrew Bertram, Jessica (Kenneth) Gregory, Rebecca (Kirk) Mayer, Leslie (Roger) Lofquist, Jonathan (Breanna) Trobaugh, Emily Henkel, Kayla (Shawn) Hermanns, Kyle Brickler and Kraig Brickler; great-nieces & nephews, cousins, other relatives and many, many friends.

Services celebrating Diane's life will be held privately at Southern Wisconsin Veterans Memorial Cemetery. In memory of Diane, offer a kind deed to someone in need.
