After Bruce's retirement, they moved to Ellsworth and continued breeding and raising horses, having as many as 15 at one point. Diane was very grateful to be able to spend 20 years of her life in this way.She is survived by her husband of 50 years, Bruce Clark; daughters, Amy Crane and husband, Peter, of Ellsworth, and Jennifer Lebendig and husband, Marc, of Ruckersville, Va.; and three granddaughters, Hannah Crane of Ellsworth, and Emma and Mira Lebendig of Virginia.
