Diana was born on June 2, 1945, in Oklahoma City, OK to Archie and Alma (Janzen) Hoffman. Shortly after Diana was born, Archie was discharged from the Navy so the family moved back to the Munich area where Diana was raised and attended school with her 3 siblings.
On September 5, 1963, Diana was united in marriage to Wayne Haugland in Loma, ND. They made their home on the Haugland farm northeast of Hampden, ND where they raised six children.
Diana loved living on the farm. She was a hard worker and loved tending to her flowers, garden, and yard. In her spare time, she enjoyed cross stitching and made many items for herself and family. Her greatest pride was her family especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren whom she adored. She enjoyed making elaborate cakes for her children and grandchildren’s birthdays. Diana was an excellent cook. She enjoyed cooking for her entire large growing family for every holiday. There was always plenty of food and her dressing was especially enjoyed.
Along with raising her family, Diana was a cheerleader for basketball while in high school, taught Sunday school in Loma and Hampden, and was part of the Ladies Aid in Loma and Hampden.
