Martha Dominguez Obituary



Martha Dominguez

Resident of San Jose

Jan. 3, 1920 - Jan. 10, 2011

Beloved wife of the late Melquiades Dominguez passed into eternal life, peacefully with her family by her side, at the age of 91. Her final days were spent surrounded by family and friends that Martha had touched in many ways throughout her very memorable life.

In life, she blessed all her children with love and wisdom. She leaves her legacy with five daughters and three sons, Linda, Jane, Nellie, Dee, Martha (deceased), Pablo, Jesus and Joe. Martha was a grandmother of 34, great-grandmother of 71, and great-great grandmother of 6.

She was a wonderful Wife, Mother, Sister, Grandmother and Friend. She will be missed and her spirit will live on with us in all the wonderful memories.

A memorial service will be held at Lima Family Erickson, 710 Willow Street, San Jose CA. Visitation will begin on Monday January 17th at 4:00 pm, followed by the reading of the Rosary at 7:00 pm.

Family and Friends are invited to Mass on Tuesday January 18th, at 11:00 am at the Most Holy Trinity, 2040 Nassau Drive. Internment will follow at Calvary Catholic Cemetery, 2655 Madden Ave, San Jose, CA.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Tia Martha,(To the most beautiful Lady)
Usted era como una rosa tan hermosa. Me recuerdo cuando me case con Danny y que un dia que la conoci me dio una sonriza tan bonita y unas palabras tan hermosas. Me hizo sentir muy apreciada. Siempre me ha recordado de usted como una senora muy linda. Gracias por su amor que me expresaba cuando me miraba. Lo siento mucho que no esta con nosotros pero se que esta en los brasos de nuestro Dios y con una sonriza tan hermosa como siempre la voy a recordar. Que Dios siempre la tenga como una de sus angeles mas hermosa. To the most beautiful lady!
Con Amor Siempre Linda Martinez,
Los Banos, Ca.
