She was born to Simon and Frances Ortiz on August 12, 1977, in Phoenix, Arizona. Heather was a loving mother, daughter, sister, wife, and friend that fought a fierce battle against colon cancer for the past 7 months.
Heather graduated from Corona Del Sol in 1995, and from Arizona State University in 2000 with a degree in Business and Criminal Justice. She was a proud alumnus of Kappa Delta Chi, Lambda Chapter, Zeta Class. Her unwavering commitment to her alma mater will forever be remembered.

She was always strong, and she never showed more strength than when battling cancer. Heather will be eternally remembered.
Heathers steadfast love, devotion, and faith will endlessly live in our all of hearts.

We did t know Heather but, we know her greatest friend, Alexa-our niece. Together they were an interminable force that won’t diminish with Heather’s passing. The bond transcends all boundaries and will be shared in a different mode now —but not without value and meaning. Thank you Heather for coming into and being such an integral part of Alexa and her infectious spirit. God bless the family and Alexa !
