Dianne Bernice Fischer, age 83, of Bovey, MN, left her suffering earthly body and entered into the presence of Jesus on February 23, 2025, at Garden Court Chateau in Grand Rapids, MN.

Dianne was born on December 2, 1941, in Morris, MN to Archie & Pearl (Blood) Peters. As a child, her family moved to Goodland, MN, where Dianne was raised as the youngest of 10 children.

Dianne and Ronald "Ronnie" Fischer were united in marriage and blessed with four children. They began their family in Goodland and then moved to Grand Rapids. After the children were grown, Ronnie and Dianne parted ways for a time. She married Jack Richardson and gained four bonus kids. Following Jack's passing, she moved to Bovey.

Several years later, Dianne remarried Ronnie - her first love and the father of her children. They were happily married until Ronnie's passing.

Dianne was a natural caregiver and spent many fulfilling years as a homemaker, in-home daycare provider, ward secretary at the hospital, and manager at Life's Companion until her retirement. Dianne was gifted in home décor and furniture refurbishing; she loved the thrill of the hunt and beautifully outfitted her home in many a rummage sale find. A lifelong animal lover, she cared for many birds, cats and dogs over the years. She loved to host Christmas and a holiday was never complete without her dinner buns and homemade strawberry jam. Dianne will be remembered for her candor, generosity and love of Jesus.

She is survived by her children, Riva Hagy, Ronald (Lori) Fischer, Russell (Roberta) Fischer and Renee Florek; stepchildren, Tim (Lynn) Richardson, Michelle (Jeff) Barstow, Randy (Anne) Richardson, Brian Richardson; 11 grandchildren, Andrea, Chantelle, Brian, Natasha, Jaclyn, Jessica, Brandon, Danica, Brett, Garric, Jacey; 19 great-grandchildren; sisters, Leila Haigh, Mary Lou Stephens; and her beloved Yorkie "Danny Boy."

Preceded in death by her parents; husbands, Ronald D. Fischer, Jack Richardson; son-in-law, Greg Hagy; grandson, Blake Fischer; and siblings, Merlin, Harley, Virene, David, Hazel, Rosella & Janet.

Visitation will be Monday, March 3, 2025 at 10:00 am at Grace Bible Chapel, Grand Rapids, MN followed by the 11:00 am funeral service. Chaplain Richie Danielson will officiate. Burial will be at Itasca-Calvary Cemetery, Grand Rapids, MN.

Dianne's family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff at Garden Court Chateau and St. Croix Hospice for the wonderful care they gave Dianne.
