Obituary
Diane Marie Scott was born on September 12, 1946, at the old
Seward Hospital to Syl and Eileen (Niemann) Matulka and passed away on Friday, March 15, 2013, at
the Seward Memorial Hospital Assisted Living, at the age of 66 years, 6 months and 3
days.
She was the eldest of four children. She attended Marysville
Parochial School through the 8th grade and graduated from Seward High School.
On November 5, 1967, Diane married Robert Scott at Our Redeemer
Lutheran Church (Marysville) in rural Staplehurst, Nebraska. They were blessed with three girls and
for more than 45 years they made their home in Seward County. Through the years she took pleasure
in working alongside her husband on the family farm and had worked for Vahl Drug in Seward and
Stych’s Locker in Cordova. She also valued the many years serving the church as church secretary
and teaching Sunday school and Bible School. Diane was proud of her years of service as leader of
the Cordova 4-H club and the work she did with the Seward County 4-H program. She will be fondly
remembered for her love for cooking and baking and her deep love for her family and the precious
times they shared together. Diane relished being a grandmother to her grandchildren.
Those left to cherish her memory are her husband, Robert Scott and
three daughters and sons-in law, Jennifer and Troy Dvorak of Aurora; Michelle and Brent Falgione of
Lincoln; and Tressa and Toby Lindeman of Ainsworth; and four grandchildren, Trevor and Tyson
Dvorak, and Brianna and Anthony Falgione. Additional survivors include her three brothers and
sisters-in-law, Doug and Joan Matulka; Marlin and Pat Matulka; and Gary Matulka & Lynelle
Earnest; and sister-in-law Ellen Knuth. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews, aunts,
uncles and cousins.
Diane was preceded in death by her parents, Syl and Eileen Matulka
and her father-in-law and mother-in-law, Jens and Margaret Scott.
