Martha Alfaro, 78, of Las Cruces, New Mexico, entered into eternal rest on August 18, 2025.

Martha was welcomed into the arms of the Lord, reunited with her beloved husband, Pastor Fidel Alfaro, her brother Cruz Ramirez, and her parents Joel and Cresencia Ramirez. She leaves behind a legacy of faith and love in her children, Maricruz Alfaro-Solis (Manny), Rocio Alfaro Miller (Jack), Isaiah Alfaro, and Joel Alfaro; her cherished grandchildren Isaac Vigil, Joshua Vigil (Araceli), Noah Vigil, Robert Gilbert, and Joseph Gilbert; her treasured great-grandchildren Mia, April, Isaac, Micah, Ezra, and Ezekiel; and her siblings Maria, Esperanza, Lupe, Pedro, and Olivia Ramirez.

A devoted pastor's wife and faithful servant of God at Aposento Alto Asambleas de Dios, Martha lived a life rooted in faith, family, and service. She was known for her warm spirit, generosity, and unwavering love for others. She touched countless lives with her kindness and strength, and her legacy will live on in all who were blessed to know her.

Martha found joy in fellowship, cherishing time with her family and friends and creating memories filled with laughter, love, and the presence of God's grace.
