Mamá Lola falleció dejando un gran vacío en los corazones de quienes la amaban.
Fue una mujer alegre, llena de vida, con una sonrisa que contagiaba a todos a su alrededor. Amaba cantar y bailar, y el mariachi mexicano era una de sus mayores alegrías. Cada vez que sonaban las trompetas y las guitarras, sus ojos brillaban y su voz se unía a la música con todo el corazón.
Su familia la recordarán siempre como una mujer cariñosa, fuerte y dedicada, que supo hacer de cada momento una celebración. Siempre llevarán su canto en el corazón.
Descansa en paz, Mamá Lola. Tu canto y tu baile seguirán vivos en nuestros recuerdos.
A Mamá Lola, le sobreviven 5 hijos, 25 nietos, 38 bisnietos y 12 tataranietos.
Los servicios funerarios comenzarán el miércoles 19 de noviembre de 2025 de 4:00 p. m. a 8:00 p. m. El rosario se rezará a las 5:00 p. m. La misa se celebrará en la iglesia católica de Santa Genoveva el 20 de noviembre de 2025 a las 10:00 a. m. El entierro tendrá lugar en el cementerio masónico a las 11:30 a. m.
English:
Mamá Lola passed away, leaving a great emptiness in the hearts of those who loved her.
She was a joyful woman, full of life, with a smile that spread to everyone around her. She loved to sing and dance, and Mexican mariachi music was one of her greatest joys. Whenever the trumpets and guitars played, her eyes would shine and her voice would join the music with all her heart.
Her family will always remember her as a loving, strong, and dedicated woman who knew how to make every moment a celebration. Her family will always carry her song in their hearts.
Rest in peace, Mamá Lola. Your singing and dancing will live on in our memories. Mamá Lola is survived by 5 children, 25 grandchildren, 38 great-grandchildren, and 12 great-great-grandchildren.
Services will start Wednesday 11/19/2025 from 4 to 8 pm. Rosary will start at 5 pm. Mass service will be held at St. Genevieve Catholic Church on 11/20/2025 at 10 am.
