Domenico DIANNA Obituary

DIANNA, Domenico "Mimmo" born September 21, 1959 in Bitritto, Italy, passed away on Tuesday, October 18, 2016 after a valiant fight against cancer. He immigrated to the US in May 1971, living in Modesto, CA until 2006 when he and his family moved to Tucson. Mimmo, as he was known by all those closest to him, was enthusiastic about sports, travel and entertaining. But above all, he was passionate about his family. Mimmo was a devoted husband to Jill, father to Vincent (Jenny), Ashelza and Christian; Grandpa to Gabriella, Gino and Domenic. Loved ones also include siblings, Dorina (Antonio) Villanova, Joe (Ann), and Cesare and cherished nieces, nephews and dear friends. He will be sorely missed. Service will be held Saturday, November 12, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Pius Catholic Church in Tucson, AZ. Arrangements by DESERT ROSE HEATHER MORTUARY.

Although we bore witness to Mimmo's brave battle, and desire to remain with his loved ones, and we saw the effects that cancer ravaged on him; it is still so hard to grasp the fact that he is no longer with us. We miss him so very much. Love always, Paolo, Jacqui, Bianca, Chiara and Natascia
