Diep Ly Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Diep was born in Greensburg, Pennsylvania on February 13, 1983 to Chau Que and Quyen Tuyet Ly. The family moved to Arlington, Virginia and Diep made friendships in school and on the ball field that continue to this day. Members of Greenbrier Baptist Church as a youth, Diep, alongside her brothers Cong "Kevin" Ly and Kenny Ly, and cousins Sherry Chuong and Richard Chuong, were baptized together and considered their church family an important part of their lives. A proud graduate of Chantilly High School class of 2001, she then pursued a Sports Management degree from Virginia Commonwealth University graduating in 2005, and worked at Enterprise immediately after college. She ultimately landed her dream job working as an Acquisition Specialist for the US government in 2023, where she continued to grow her accolades. On October 11, 2019, Diep met her life partner, Diego Carrion and they welcomed their beautiful daughter, Ava Carrion on March 9, 2023.
Diep was a devoted daughter, sister, life partner, mother, and friend. She enjoyed traveling around the world, and experiencing what different cultures had to offer. She loved playing softball, volleyball, and golf. She was always there when you needed her. Her personality made you feel like you were the most critical person in the world. She always showed up with a smile, laughter, and friendship. Diep fulfilled her lifelong goal of becoming a mother, spending every moment with her daughter, and surrounding her with unconditional love and affection. She has touched many lives and will be deeply missed by her friends, family, and all who knew her.
In lieu of flowers, we ask that donations be contributed to Ava Carrion's future as well as the immediate needs of the families.
