Olga Alvara Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 27, 2018.
Olga M. Alvara went to her eternal rest on November 25, 2018, at the age of 63. She was born on August 15, 1955, in Great Lakes, Illinois, to Esteban Espinoza and Ramona Martinez.
Olga was preceded in death and met in heaven by her soul mate and loving husband of 38 years, Eleazar P. Alvara and her mother, Ramona Martinez.
Left behind to cherish her memory are her father: Esteban Espinoza (Maria); children: Liz Martinez (John), Eleazar Alvara Jr., Olga Alvara (Zepatrick Carter Jr.); grandchildren: Isaiah Martinez, Julian Martinez, Shaylize Martinez, Ezabella Martinez, Emily Andie Alvara, and Zepatrick Carter III; great granddaughter: Meliora Aria Espinoza; siblings: Esteban Espinoza (Marcelina), Juan Espinoza (Delia), Jose Espinoza, Carmen Rodriguez (Leonardo), Father Beto Espinoza, Elva Saldana (Mario), and Cecilia Espinoza; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members and friends.
Olga had 3 great loves in her life: Her husband and family, music, and snacks. She was a hard working woman who dedicated her life to taking care of her children and grandchildren and being a loving wife to her beloved husband, Eleazar. Knowing that he was waiting for her on the other side of the pearly gates, she spent her last days asking for the love of her life. Olga loved music and would sing and dance with her family when her favorite songs would play, creating memories that will remain with them always. She had a love for food and snacks and will fondly be remembered for hiding some of her favorite snacks around the house such as peanuts, honey nut Cheerios, and candy. Olga will be dearly missed by all whose lives she touched.
A Visitation will be held on Thursday, December 6, 2018 from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Trevino Funeral Home, 2525 Palo Alto Road, with a Rosary to be recited at 7:00 p.m. On Friday, December 7, 2018, a funeral procession will depart from the funeral home at 9:15 a.m. for a 10:00 a.m. Mass to be held at Divine Providence Catholic Church, 5667 Old Pearsall Road. Interment will follow at San Fernando Catholic Cemetery II, 742 Castroville Road.
