Marian "Diane" Van Billiard, 71, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family, at Rennes Health and Rehab Center in De Pere, WI on Saturday, October 12, 2024. She was born in Tampa, Florida on August 1, 1953, to Donald and Nancy Wick.

Diane graduated from West High School in Green Bay with the class of 1971. She continued her education at NWTC, graduating as a surgical technician. Diane went on to apply her skills at St. Vincent Hospital for several years.

In her free time, Diane was an avid reader, enjoyed crossword puzzles, cross stitch, watching Packer Games, and the occasional trip to the casino. What she particularly enjoyed was time spent with her family, especially her grandchildren.

Diane is survived by her husband, Morris "Skip" Van Billiard, children; Terri Jo (Mike) Schlatter and Paul Lotto; grandchildren, Ashley, Allison, and Nathan Schlatter; siblings, Brian (Leanne) Wick, Barb Abel, Jeff (Michelle), sister-in-law Kathy Barber, father of her children Bob Lotto, special friend, Jackie Boucher, and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins that were all dear to her.

She was preceded in death by her father and mother, Don and Nancy Wick, and her brother Thomas Wick.

A private burial will take place in Ironwood, Michigan, with a celebration of Diane's Life being held at a later date.

Skip, Terri Jo, and Paul would like to thank all the family members and friends who have helped in this time of need.
