Bertha L Lopez, born on May 31, 1927, in Nogales Sonora, was a beloved matriarch whose warmth and love touched the lives of all who knew her. She peacefully entered the eternal rest on March 3, 2025, in Rio Rico, Arizona, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, compassion, and an infectious smile that brightened even the darkest of days.
Bertha’s spirit was incomparable; she was truly a light in the lives of her family and friends. With an exceptional ability to make those around her feel cherished, she always prioritized the needs of others above her own. Her laughter was like a balm for weary souls, and her loving heart radiated warmth, creating an atmosphere that embraced all who approached her.
Family was everything to Bertha, and she cherished every moment spent in their company. Countless Sundays were spent gathered together, sharing stories and laughter while enjoying each other's presence. One of her favorite pastimes was watching her beloved "novelas," with the comforting hum of their stories blending seamlessly into the background as she engaged in heartfelt conversations with her family.
Bertha is survived by her devoted son Marco A. Lopez and her loving daughter Sandra L. Beltran, who will remember their mother as a source of endless wisdom and immeasurable love. She also leaves behind her cherished siblings—brothers Marco Lopez, Oscar Lopez, Sergio Lopez, and Jorge Lopez, alongside her beloved sisters Evangelina Jimenez Lopez and Amelia Lopez, all of whom will carry her spirit in their hearts forever. Bertha's life was further enriched by her grandchildren—Marco Lopez, Sergio Lopez, Jorge Lopez, and Albert Beltran—each of whom brought her immense joy and cherished memories that will carry on her legacy.
The memory of Bertha L Lopez will live on through all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her selflessness, warmth, and compassion will continue to inspire those she leaves behind. A Funeral Service in her honor will take place on March 6, 2025, at the Martinez Funeral Chapels in Nogales, beginning at 9:00 AM and concluding by 2:00 PM. Following this, a Mass will be held at Most Holy Nativity Catholic Church in Rio Rico at 2:30 PM, where friends and family can gather to celebrate her beautiful life and share in the collective grief of her departure.
Though Bertha may have departed from this earthly realm, her light will forever shine brightly in the hearts of those who knew her. She will be profoundly missed and fondly remembered, a timeless figure of love and faith whose spirit will never fade.
