Diana Duque entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, October 5, 2021 at a hospital in Alice, Texas at the age of 64. She was born on December 2, 1956 to Lino Duque, Sr. and Elida Cantu Duque in Falfurrias, Texas. Before retirement, Diana worked for over 23 years as a Cook for Dairy Burger in Alice.
She was known for her big heart and her willingness to always help anyone who was in need, regardless of her situation. She wasn’t one to sugar-coat anything and was truthful and honest but it was always with good intentions. She always went out of her way for others out of pure love for them. Although she was not perfect, she always tried her best to model the love of Jesus.
Diana is preceded in death by her parents; two brothers, Daniel Duque and Leonel Duque, Sr. and brother-in-law, Gilbert Vela.
Diana is survived by brothers, Lorenzo (Linda) Duque, Leopoldo (Minerva) Duque and Lino (Rachel) Duque, Jr. all of Corpus Christi, Texas; sisters, Lydia (Ramiro) Perez of Corpus Christi and Luisa Vela of Colorado Springs, Colorado; sister-in-law, Caroline Chesney Duque of Corpus Christi and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews and extended family members and friends.
Gratitude is expressed to her caretaker, Priscilla Ann Rodriguez of Alice, for her dedicated care of Diana over the past five years.
