August 16, 2014
Dianne K. Husby, age 69, of Billings, Montana, died Saturday, August 16, 2014 from complications of multiple sclerosis. Dianne was born May 3, 1945 to Donald and Marlys Husby in Menomonie, Wisconsin and graduated valedictorian of her class from Menomonie High School in 1963. She received a BA in mathematics from Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1967. She spent most of her teaching career at Dakota County Technical College in Rosemount, Minnesota, receiving Teacher of the Year award – a recognition of which she was very proud. She retired in 2005 for health reasons and moved to Billings, Montana to be closer to family. She continued to tutor mathematics and to volunteer at Billings Clinic, where she was noted for her dry wit, teasing and high jinks. She enjoyed bible study at Aspen Meadows and Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd. Dianne was an avid reader and collector of books, working many years part-time at Barnes and Noble. She provided her beloved nieces with an entire library. Dianne was pre-deceased by her father, Donald Husby, and is survived by her mother, Marlys; sister, Lucinda "Cindy" (Larry Disney); brother Dan (Lynn Krause); and her nieces, Erin, Erika and Amanda Disney. Memorial services will be held at 1:00 p.m. Friday, August 22, 2014 at Christ Lutheran Church in Menomonie, WI with Pastor Geoff Scott officiating. Burial will take place at St. Paul's Lutheran Cemetery in Menomonie. Visitation will be one hour prior to the service at the church. Memorial services will be held in Billings, Montana at a later date. The family extends special thanks to Dr. Karen Cabel and Melanie Schmitz, PA, for their loving care, as well as the staff at Marquis Vintage Suites, Aspen Meadows Nursing Home and Billings Clinic Transisitional Care Unit. In lieu of flowers, the family requests all memorials be directed to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
