Elvira Hernandez Obituary

Visit the Sunset Funeral Homes - Americas - El Paso website to view the full obituary.

Elvira Hernandez, age 93, of El Paso, Texas, passed away peacefully while under the loving care and comfort of her family on Tuesday, October 7, 2025.

Elvira is lovingly survived by her devoted children, Manuel Rodrigo Garcia and Beatrice Cortez; cherished grandchildren, Priscilla Cortez, Fernie Cortez, Manny Garcia Jr., and Matthew Garcia; and her dear great-grandson, Dominic Encino. She is also remembered with affection by numerous extended family members and dear friends whose lives she touched deeply.

Elvira’s legacy is forever woven into the hearts of the loving family she leaves behind. As the beloved matriarch of a close-knit family built on joy, strength, and unwavering loyalty, she embodied the very essence of devotion. Elvira faced life with grace and courage, nurturing her children in a home overflowing with laughter, faith, and boundless love. Her strength was innate—quiet yet immeasurable—and her presence was the foundation upon which her family stood.

To know Elvira was to be embraced by the purest form of love. She gave selflessly, uplifted endlessly, and believed deeply in the beauty of family. She was, and will always remain, the center of our universe and the heartbeat of our lives. Though our hearts ache in her absence, we are comforted knowing she now rests in God’s embrace.

And just as she graced every room with her laughter and rhythm, we know she is now dancing her way into heaven—light on her feet, joyful in spirit, and finally at peace.

A Visitation will be held from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Tuesday, October 14, 2025 at Sunset Funeral Home- Americas with a Rosary at 7:00 pm. A Funeral Mass will be held at 10:15 am on Wednesday, October 15, 2025 at San Antonio Catholic Church, 503 Hunter Dr, El Paso, TX 79915.

Services are entrusted to Sunset Funeral Home- Americas, 9521 N. Loop Dr., El Paso, Texas 79907.
