It is with heavy hearts, that as a family, we announce that our dear mother Elva

Elva was born in Mexico, in the town of Saltillo, Coahuila on November 20, 1938.
Over time she met and married her husband Guadalupe, and resided in Mexico, where
they raised their two children. Before getting married, she worked as a welder and
machinist, helping in the family business. Elva loved music, dancing and cooking. Her
family meant everything to her, she loved to entertain and spent time with family and
friends.
Elva dedicated her life and was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. She
regularly spoke of her love for Jehovah God and her confidence in the Bible's promises.
Predeceased by her brother Sergio, mother Agustina and father Ricardo DePeña.
Dear wife of Guadalupe. Loving mother of René (Mireya), Karla (Paul) Proud
grandma of René Jr. and Chelsea. Elva is also survived by her siblings, nieces, nephews,
cousins and extended family and friends. She will be sadly missed by all of them.
