Obit Dianna ToombsOur loving mother, grandmother, sister, auntie, and friend (Maria) Dianna Toombs passed away on Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2015 due to complications from recent heart surgery. She was born on Aug. 27, 1938 in La Lama, New Mexico, to Abran and Petra Ortega. Dianna was a true beauty, both inside and out, and often found herself at the center of the social scene while growing up. She loved learning, cheerleading, and especially dressing up and dancing the night away whenever she could. Life after high school took her from New Mexico to Colorado and then Utah, where she settled and raised her four children. Dianna was such an incredible example to her family. Her absolute devotion to her children was apparent to all and she was an unparalleled example of working hard and using strength and faith to find happiness amidst life’s challenges. Though she often felt too busy to even sit down, her free moments were spent welcoming people into her impeccable home, cooking delicious meals, traveling with family, gathering memories, creating scrapbooks and devouring her precious books. Dianna is survived by her children: Edie (Dennis) Park and Moses (Joelle) Vargas; grandchildren: Christopher (Bia Oliveira) Park, Meagan (Larry Zbinden III) Park, Jaeshawn Park, Zachary Vargas, Alexander Vargas, Sophia Vargas and Abigail Vargas; great-grandson Larry Zbinden IV; brother Manuel, sister Rila, and many loving family and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, four siblings and her two beloved sons Rory Martinez and Arnold Martinez, with whom we know she has had such a joyous reunion. Memorial services were held on Saturday, Feb. 21, 2015 where many gathered to pay tribute to Dianna and celebrate her amazing life. She will be missed forever and for always.
