Isabel Sauceda Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Phipps-Dale Funeral Chapel - Lemoore on Mar. 9, 2026.
In Loving Memory of Isabel Sauceda

"Mom, your absence leaves a quiet ache, but your love remains our guiding light-a warmth we carry in our hearts forever. We miss your smile, your wisdom, and your hugs, but we find comfort knowing you are at peace, watching over us. Your legacy of unconditional love lives through us always and everywhere."

Isabel Sauceda, age 93, of Fresno, California, was called to heaven on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, in Fresno, California.

Isabel was born on November 5, 1932, in Harlingen, Texas, to Evaristo and Josefina Flores. She attended school through the third grade before beginning work in the fields at a young age to help support her family.

Isabel was a woman of simple joys and deep love for her family. She enjoyed making jewelry, especially creating Catholic rosaries to give to her loved ones. She loved sweets, particularly Almond Joy, Hershey bars, and Tootsie Pops, which she often shared with her son-in-law Richard. Isabel also enjoyed walking miles every day and staying active. Her family and friends especially cherished her delicious homemade refried beans and flour tortillas, which were always made with love.

Isabel was blessed to share 42 years of marriage with her beloved husband, Isidro Sauceda Sr.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Isidro Sauceda Sr.; her daughter, Teresa Martinez; her grandson, Robert Sauceda; and her granddaughter, Rachel Sauceda.

She is survived by her children: Isidro Sauceda Jr. (Debbie), Rita Ramos (Richard), and Virginia Sauceda; and her son-in-law, Max Martinez. She also leaves behind 20 grandchildren, 11 great-grandchildren, and 10 great-great-grandchildren who will continue to carry her love and memory in their hearts.

Isabel will be remembered as a loving and caring mother, grandma, great-grandma, and great-great-grandma. She was highly respected and dearly loved by all who knew her and will be deeply missed. Her family will forever cherish the many memories they shared with her.

A Rosary Service will be held on Wednesday, March 11th at 9:30 AM and Mass will follow at 10:00 AM at St. Peter Prince of the Apostles Parish Catholic Church located at 807 North Lemoore Ave, Lemoore, CA 93245. Graveside Service will follow thereafter at Lemoore Cemetery, 1441 N. Lemoore Ave,

Lemoore , CA. 93245
