Diane “Dee” Carol Hanson (Kenyon), 74, of Wolf Point died Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2024, in Phoenix, Ariz. She was born June 8, 1950, in Erie, Pa., to Mary Ann Butler and the late William E. Kenyon Sr. She was a proud graduate of Alhambra High School where she excelled in tennis. After high school, she eloped with Lonnie Bradley and, during their 18-year marriage, raised two children, Lindee and Chad. She worked for Enron for 18 years and, in her travels for the company, she met and later married Dale Hanson of Wolf Point on Dec. 20, 1999. She owned and ran three restaurants in her lifetime and loved Montana and the friends she had here. She retired after six years as the aging coordinator from the Roosevelt County Aging Services in 2015. She was always full of life and loved big. Her generous heart and contagious laugh always left the ones around her with a smile. She enjoyed fishing, camping, slot machines and spending as much time as she could with her grandchildren and great-grandchild.

Donna Sansaver Wimmer, 79, of Wolf Point died Dec. 22, 2024. She was born May 5, 1945, to Roy and Mary (Azure) Sansaver in Poplar. She attended Immaculate Conception grade school and graduated high school in 1964 from Wolf Point High School. She then pursued and obtained her nursing degree from Northern Montana College. Her nursing career and passion to help others led her to Waco, Texas, where she was eventually blessed with two daughters, Nadine and Natalie; Natalie being born in Sidney. Valuing her daughters above all else, she recognized that returning home to Wolf Point was the best choice for her, Nadine and Natalie. She met Roger Wimmer in 1970, and there was no question that he would be the one that she, Nadine and Natalie would spend the rest of their lives with as a loving family. The couple was married and, in January 1973, welcomed the youngest child, Brad. She retired from nursing in the early ‘90s. Her devout faith and her drive to put the needs of others above her own, kept her active in the Catholic Church and the community, including being a member of the Catholic Daughters, Wolf Point Optimists, active Parish Ministry and countless church, school and community fundraising events. Never the kind to want a spotlight upon her, most of her giving took place in private with volunteering her time and resources to family, friends and community members in need. Her devotion to her faith and her love for her family was unparalleled. Those who knew her best knew that her matter-of-fact demeanor might set you back on your heels, but that her heart and her home would always welcome you in.
