Mia Adalyn Preston

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Mia Adalyn Preston on February 23, 2024, a bright and loving four-year-old who left us too soon. Mia is the beloved daughter of Nick Preston and Alia Calano Preston, and a cherished sister to Dax, Troy, and Wells.

Mia’s kind, funny, and gentle nature brought joy to all who knew her. Her special love for makeup and Disney princesses was a reflection of the wonder she saw in the world. Never without her purse of lip gloss and arm full of bracelets, Mia made a deep impact on all who met her. She overcame her fear of water after a drowning accident at the age of two and learned ISR (Infant Swimming Rescue), ultimately saving countless lives by sharing her bravery and accomplishment.

She will be deeply missed by her family and friends, her memory living on in the hearts of those who loved her. Mia’s wonderful and loving spirit will be remembered always.

Mia has been welcomed to heaven by her beloved Papago, Richard Calano, who preceded her in death. Tethered together in life, they remain tethered together in death.

Funeral services are Saturday, March 2, 2024 at 11:00 AM at Life Church, 16831 S Greenfield Rd, Gilbert, AZ 85295. Flowers can be sent to Bunker’s University Chapel, 3529 E University Dr, Mesa, AZ 85213.
