Darlene Mary Mumper, 57, Kewaunee, brought endless joy and warmth to the hearts of all who knew her, passed away on July 24, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. Born on June 18, 1967, in Two Rivers, WI, to the late Dayton & Irene Pekarek. A graduate of Kewaunee High School, she married the love of her life, Timothy Mumper, on July 25, 1986, in Manitowoc, WI.

Darlene found true happiness in the simplest yet most meaningful moments of life. Her vegetable garden was a masterpiece, she poured her heart into creating the most delicious homecooked meals and baked goods, canning was another hobby; another passion of Darlene's was spending time with her grandchildren, playing games, and creating beautiful crafts together. She was their source of endless laughter and unconditional love, always present at their events with a proud smile on her face. Sister Saturdays were a tradition close to Darlene's heart, playing the role of the Easter Bunny during the holidays brought her joy. She also had an enjoyment for shopping and music festivals. Darlene was the glue that bound our family together and she will be missed by us all.
