Dianne Lemke, age 71, of Jenison, went to her heavenly home on Tuesday, March 7, 2023. Dianne was a loving woman and a dear friend with a great sense of humor. She loved music, reading, spending time with friends, especially going to the casino with them, but above all she loved her family.

The family would like to thank Faith Hospice, Georgetown Cambridge Manor, and the University of Michigan Metro Health West for their tender love and care. She was preceded in death by her husband, Gerald Lemke; parents, Vernon and Donna Babcock; and her brother, Dan Babcock. Dianne will be lovingly remembered by her children, Shane (Angela) Lemke, Jamie (Megan) Lemke, Caitlin (Randy) Mahar; grandchildren, Dakota, Haleigh, Everett; and her siblings Michael Babcock, John Babcock, Jane (Mike) Anstett, Jim (Melissa) Babcock; and many nieces and nephews. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11 am on Wednesday, March 15, 2023 at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church, 2700 Baldwin St. SW with Fr. Phong Pham officiating.

Dianne & I met 23 years ago. We had so much fun. I will never forget all of our laughs & shenanigans. I'm so thankful she is no longer suffering & is now well. I miss you, but will see you later, dear friend. ❤️

Dianne was my dearest friend for over 40 years! She was loving, kind, and generous to a fault. I have so many cherished memories. I Love her like a sister, She will forever be in my heart. She suffers no more as God has called another Angel home.

Dianne and I went to grade school together at SJV and a few years ago, I “met” her again through her daughter in law, Angela. A very sweet girl and I’m sure, a super nice mom and grandma. I am sorry for your loss.
