Dianne Zapata was born on January 30, 1960, in Clifton, Texas to Mack Guerra and Polly Mayhew.  She started out her life with a bang, which is no surprise to anyone who knew her.  In her younger years, she participated in many track and field events. Dianne spent many years as a Registered Nurse, and she was also a long time Partner with H-E-B.   Later in life, she became a member of the American Legion Auxiliary in Elm Mott, Texas.  She enjoyed making lots of memories with her family, like spending her summers swimming with her grandchildren, teaching her daughters and grandchildren how to make her famous tamales and tortillas, and sharing all her wonderful life stories. Dianne had an amazingly contagious laugh that she shared so often with anyone willing to take part in her jokes. She was loving and nurturing by nature and would jump at the sight to help anyone in need. Dianne loved to show off her moves to Cumbias, no matter if it was on the dance floor or in her kitchen. She had the most captivating smile that we will all remember as time goes on.  Dianne was loved by many friends and family and will be tremendously missed.
