Diane King

Diane King, 84, passed away on September 3, 2024, in Murray, UT, surrounded by her cherished children. Diane was a devoted and affectionate mother who loved her children unconditionally. She took great joy in creating and sewing, making everything from clothes to playful items for her family. A passionate musician, Diane embraced all things music and dance. She spent many years teaching guitar both in her home and at Snow College, and she frequently performed at various venues across the state. One of her greatest joys was forming the band "Reflections" with her children, akin to Sanpete's own version of the Partridge Family.

Diane was also an avid mountain biker and skier, continuing these activities into her 70s. Her knitting skills were remarkable, and she crafted beautiful sweaters, hats, and socks. Diane wanted to leave a lasting legacy, so she authored her life story, wrote and recorded beautiful songs on her own CD, and created personalized cards for many holidays and special occasions—keepsakes her loved ones will always treasure. Her life motto was “Savor the Flavor of Life,” and she lived it fully.

Born on June 26, 1940, in Ephraim, UT, Diane was the daughter of Art and Ruth King. She enjoyed working on the family farm with her daddy and had a deep love for her sisters Kathy, Judy, and Peggy. Diane was married to Travis Rosenlof in 1959 and was married for 19 years.

Diane is survived by her children Tremaine (Tom) Fenton, Angela (Jay) Jessop, Blake (Tara) Rosenlof, and Justine (Albert) Rosenlof. She is also remembered fondly by her 12 grandchildren—Cheryl, Micki, Brock, Parker, Conner, Cade, London, Gatlin, Justin, Kendall, LoraLee, and Ryu—and 12 great-grandchildren. Diane shared many wonderful years with her loving partner Ron Schroeder, who will miss her profoundly.

Visitation will be held at Rasmussen Mortuary on Saturday, September 7, at 11:00 AM, with the service beginning at 12:00 PM. Burial will follow at the Ephraim City Cemetery.

Recordings are available for 60 days from date of service.
