DIANA R. MADERAS
March 26, 1937 – March 11, 2025

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother, Diana R. Maderas, who peacefully entered eternal rest on March 11, 2025.

A devoted Prayer Warrior, she was a faithful servant of the Lord, always sharing God's word and lifting others up with her prayers. Her persistence in faith and love was evident in everything she did. One of her greatest joys was making beautiful rosaries, a reflection of her devotion and the care she had for others. She also cherished playing Scrabble with her grandsons and creating lasting memories with her family.

She is survived by her loving children, Caroline Leyva (Joseph) and Richard Rodarte, as well as many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren, including Alisia Caswell (Jeremiah), John Maxwell (Courtney), Alvaro Ruiz (Irene), Rosa Johnson (Erian), Christopher Rodarte, Abdul Nangyalai (Bilkese). She also leaves behind numerous nieces and nephews in California, Washington, Denver, Texas, and Hawaii who will forever hold dear the special times they shared with her.

Our Nana's love, goodness, and unwavering faith touched countless lives. She will be deeply missed but forever remembered in our hearts.

A funeral service to honor and celebrate her life will be held on March 27, 2025, at St. Sabina Catholic Church in Belton, MO.
