Nancy Claire (Holmquist) Diekmann was born to Claire and Mildred (Romberg) Holmquist on October 13, 1943 in Oakland, Nebraska.  After graduating from Oakland High School in 1961, she attended the University of Nebraska – Lincoln, where she served as president of her Delta Gamma sorority and vice-president of Mortar Board honorary.  Upon earning her degree in Education with an English endorsement, Nancy taught at Lincoln High School.  She then married Robert G. (Bob) Diekmann on September 4, 1966.

After Bob’s graduation from UNL, they taught in Humboldt, Nebraska, where their son, Scott, was born.  They then moved to Beaver City where their daughter, Cynthia Jean, and son, Matt were born.  Their next moves were to Elkhorn, Sutton, and finally Springfield, where Nancy returned to teaching at Arlington and then Platteview High School.  Nancy had great love for her students and those she coached in Mock Trial at Platteview.  Her excellence as an educator was recognized by UNL with the presentation of the Teachers College Freda Battey Distinguished Educator Award in 1994, and, more importantly, by those students she challenged every day.

After retiring from her teaching career, Nancy could be found at Nebraska Cornhusker football, volleyball, and baseball games, playing golf, and enjoying her Friday bridge group, several book clubs, her Bible study and Sunday School classes, and, of course, her grandchildren.

She is survived by her sons, Scott and Matt (Becky); grandchildren, Natalie and Nicholas Diekmann, David Profenna, and Elizabeth Fowler; and sisters Cynthia (Tom) Fitchett and Jean Vincent, as well as her many loving nieces and nephews.

Sondra L. Stone “Soni”

Sondra “Soni” Stone of Lincoln, NE. passed away on July 8th 2024, at a young 80 years old. Soni lived life large. She loved her husband Bill, dogs Monty and Patch, family and friends. Soni also loved to travel with her very close friends to some of her favorite places, including Key West, Aspen and Cancun. Most of the time, “dressed to the nines” would be an understatement. She loved the bling. People loved her too. So much fun to be around and go to dinner and drinks with. After she retired from the State of Nebraska Department of Aeronautics, Soni and Bill loved to travel to the west coast to visit her son and daughter, and see her grandkids.

Memorials can be sent to The Capitol Humane Society at 6500 So. 70th St. Lincoln, NE. 68516 or to the Rape Spouse Abuse Clinic at 2435 N St Lincoln, NE. 68510.
