After Ken started working for the Wheat Pool, they moved to Tregarva where they welcomed the rest of their children Durand, Korinne and Leanna. In 1965 Ken was transferred to Rowletta and there were many moves after that including Cupar, Lipton, Yorkton, Lemberg and finally settling in Regina. While in Yorkton Deanna decided to become a foster mom. She was marvelous with those little babies and became so attached. She continued to be a foster mother once she moved to Regina as well for a few years. In 1979 Deanna and Ken divorced and shortly afterwards she remarried John Meyers. Deanna and John owned a lovely home on Sherwood Drive where family loved visiting her. Unfortunately John passed away in 1998 making her a young widow. After John`s passing Deanna moved to several different places including Balgonie.  She moved back to Regina shortly before her stroke in 2011.
