Stephanie Jordan Diedrich

In Loving Memory of Stephanie Jorden Wallace-Diedrich, 35, born on November 23rd, 1989, in San Diego, California.

With shattered hearts and deep gratitude for her life, we share that my beloved wife, Stephanie, passed away peacefully on November 1st after a courageous fight with cancer. She passed by 35 years of age. Far, far too early for a light as bright as hers to leave this world.

Stephanie was the steady heartbeat of our home: a devoted mother to our daughter, Ava, and a loving daughter to her parents, Debbie Dunn (Tom) and John Wallace (Florence), and big sister to Hannah Wallace. Even in the midst of illness, she found ways to laugh, to listen, and to make us feel seen. Her courage taught us how to carry on; her love taught us why.

We will miss her every day in so many ways, but we take ease knowing that her suffering has ended and that she is at peace now, held in a love larger than all our grief.

Stephanie is survived by her husband, Sven Diedrich; her cherished daughter, Ava; her parents, Debbie Dunn (Tom) and John Wallace (Florence); sister Hannah Wallace; and all who were blessed to call her family and friend.

Isiah 57:1-2 “Good people pass away; the godly often die before their time. But no one seems to care or wonder why. No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come. For those who follow godly paths will rest in peace when they die.”
