Dianna Esquivel
September 7, 1953 — October 15, 2021
Dianna Lynne Whitney-Esquivel, born September 7, 1953 in Corpus Christi, TX, passed away at the age of 68 at home in Cibolo, Texas after being cared for by her caring and devoted family over the last few years. She is preceded in death by her father Roy Lee Whitney.
Being a very private person Dianna did not want to put her illness out there to the public. While her fight has sadly come to an end; she is with our Lord and Savior, free from pain and suffering. Growing up in the Corpus Christ area, Dianna had a passion, love and talent for cake decorating, sewing, and handcrafted needle projects. She was truly an artist and there wasn't a member of the family who didn't receive an elaborately decorated cake, a handmade outfit, or a one of a kind needle craft project. She later moved to San Antonio to be closer to her children and worked for a number of well known cake decorating shops prior to her retirement. Dianna was a devoted and loving daughter, mother, sister, grandmother, great grandmother and friend and will be dearly missed.
