Diana Solis-Zavala Obituary

On Tuesday, January 6, 2015, our friend, our hero and founder of Diana's I Will Live foundation, went home to be with the Lord. She fought the good fight of faith and received her teal wings for her warrior's heart. She was laid to rest in Buda, Texas where she is survived by her husband, Martin Zavala, her family and many angels she impacted through her foundation.

There will be a memorial in her honor on Thursday, January 15, 2015 in Fabens Texas at 6:30 pm at the O'Donnell Intermediate facility (auditorium), 301 NE Camp Street, Fabens Texas.

It was Diana's wish that everyone wear teal or white, if possible.

We would be honored if you could join us as we celebrate her life and legacy. For more information, please follow the link: https://www.facebook.com/DianasIWillLiveFoundation
