Today Marks the Burial Day of Diana Castro Hagee: A Heartbreaking Farewell
A somber hush fell over San Antonio today as family, friends, and followers gathered at Cornerstone Church to bid a final farewell to Diana Castro Hagee. The beloved wife of Pastor John Hagee, a devoted mother, and a pillar of faith, Diana’s passing has left a deep void in the hearts of many. Though the sanctuary was filled with mourners, there was also a sense of gratitude for the remarkable life she lived.
The morning began with a memorial service where worship songs echoed through the church halls, their melodies laced with grief and hope. Pastor Hagee, standing with visible sorrow but unwavering faith, delivered a heartfelt eulogy. His voice trembled as he spoke of their nearly five decades together—a journey of love, faith, and service to God’s people.
“Diana was not just my wife; she was my partner in ministry, my greatest encourager, and the love of my life,” he said. “She loved without reservation, gave without hesitation, and served the Lord with all her heart.”
Tears flowed as family members shared memories of Diana’s warmth and wisdom. Her children spoke of her unwavering support, her gentle guidance, and the deep faith she instilled in them. Congregation members recalled how she touched countless lives, whether through her ministry, books, or personal acts of kindness.
As the service concluded, the mourners followed in a solemn procession to the cemetery. The sky was overcast, as if even the heavens mourned her departure. White roses were placed upon the casket, a final tribute to a woman whose faith and love had blossomed in so many lives.
At the gravesite, Pastor Hagee led a final prayer, his voice steady yet heavy with emotion. “We grieve, but not without hope. We know that Diana is in the presence of our Lord, free from pain, free from sorrow. Her legacy will live on in our hearts and in the ministry she helped build.”
As the casket was lowered into the earth, the congregation sang one last hymn, their voices uniting in both sorrow and faith. Though Diana’s earthly journey had come to an end, her spirit remained—woven into the faith of those she loved and the countless lives she touched.
Today, San Antonio said goodbye to Diana Castro Hagee, but heaven welcomed home a faithful servant.
