Diana Lee Foster 1956 — 2021

Diana Lee Foster

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Diana on February 4, 2021 at the age of 64, after a long battle with MSA, which she was diagnosed with in 2012. Diana is lovingly remembered by her spouse of over 35 years, Ken Shaw, her daughter Ashley (Ryan), her daughter Braelyn (Leon), and new granddaughter Averie. Also left to cherish her memory are her mother Judy; siblings John, Becky, Lorna, Dawn, and Lomma; along with many very dear friends and extended family. Diana worked for many years as a medical office assistant for family physicians in Chase and then for the Chase Optometric Center, before having to retire early due to her illness. Her strength, positive attitude, and grace in dealing with her condition were an inspiration to those who knew her. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to www.multiplesystematrophy.org

Condolences may be sent to the family from www.kamloopsfuneralhome.com

    To Ken, Ashley & Braelyn
    Diana has always been an inspiration to me. We became instant friends, raised our children together and shared a lot of things about life and hence, learned together. She will never be forgotten. An angel before she actually became one.

    Very,very sorry to hear of your loss Ken. Was just talking to one of your old colleagues Hal Chambers and he asked me if I had seen or talked to you lately and I said no. I did tell him that I knew that Diana was not well and then I hear this sad news. My sincere condolences.

    Ken, Ashley & Braelyn – sending our sincere condolences to all of you. Even though we didn’t see each other very often in recent years, she was a very special friend for so many years growing up together. I woke up this morning and couldn’t stop thinking about Diana. Something told me to search the obituaries in Chase and this is how I found out. She will never be forgotten! Take care, Bob & Dorothy Kelly, McLeese Lake
