Darlene Kaspari
June 30, 1938 ~ January 19, 2015
Darlene Ann Kaspari died January 19, 2015 at Lilac Memory Care in Moorhead, MN. Darlene was born June 30, 1938 to Arve and Ann Hoel. Her dad worked for the Soo Line and moved a bit before settling in Enderlin when Darlene was in the sixth grade. That is where they called home, and that is where Darlene graduated from High School and met her husband Wayne. They shared 57 wonderful years together.
Darlene worked as a bank teller before retiring. She loved to visit with anyone and everyone and always had a smile and gentle nature.
Darlene loved to play bridge and made countless friendships over the years that have lasted to this day. Darlene was kind, and sweet and loving. She was a beautiful wife, sister, mother, and grandmother who will be dearly missed.
Darlene was preceded in death by her loving son, Jeff and her parents Arve and Ann. She is survived by her husband Wayne, Dilworth, daughter Jody (Keith) Fischer Glyndon, MN., sister, Eveleen (Jim) Armbrust, Enderlin, ND, and three loving grandchildren, Travis Fischer, Glyndon, MN, Chelse Fischer, Bemidji, MN, and Jake Hovland, Valley City, ND.
The family would like to thank Lilac Memory Care and their amazing staff for their care the last seven months. There are angels among us.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t help but look back at all the great times with your family. I especially remember the times Darlene took Jeff and me to her parent’s home for snacks. We were always entertained with cards, fortune telling and the mysterious card table that would raise and answer our questions! Darlene was always so positive and I will always remember her and your family with fond memories. Curtis Muth;
