Mario TorresNació en Villa de Cos, Zacatecas, el 12 de septiembre de 1950 — Falleció el 28 de septiembre de 2025.

Con profundo amor y tristeza despedimos a Mario Torres, esposo de María del Rosario, un hombre ejemplar, fuerte, trabajador y lleno de alegría. Fue un padre y abuelo amoroso, que dedicó su vida a su familia con esfuerzo y un corazón inquebrantable.

Amaba cocinar, especialmente su famoso pollo asado, y disfrutaba compartir sus historias, que siempre nos sacaban una sonrisa o un suspiro. Su risa, su buen humor y su espíritu valiente permanecerán por siempre en nuestra memoria.

Deja un hermoso legado con ocho hijos y más de veinte nietos, quienes lo amaron profundamente y lo recordarán con orgullo y gratitud.

Tu amor, tu ejemplo y tu presencia vivirán eternamente en nuestros corazones.
