Con gran pesar anunciamos el fallecimiento de Petra Hernández Olivas, quien partió de esta vida el 16 de agosto de 2025 en Longview, Texas, a la edad de 92 años. Nacida el 27 de septiembre de 1932 en Durango, México, Petra vivió una vida basada en la fe, la familia y el amor duradero.

Petra fue una madre, hermana, abuela y amiga devota. Su vida fue un testimonio de su inquebrantable fe católica y del profundo cariño que sentía por quienes la rodeaban. Encontró su mayor alegría en la compañía de su familia, especialmente de sus queridos nietos, cuyas vidas enriqueció con su calidez, sabiduría e historias.

Le sobreviven sus hijos: Francisco Orono y Rafael Orono; queridas hijas: Rosa Medina, Silvia Valenzuela, Reyes Medina y Antonia Orona. También deja atrás a sus queridos hermanos: Unberto Hernández Olivas, Candelario Hernández Olivas, Miguel Hernández Olivas, Trinidad Hernandez Olivas, Pedro Hernandez Olivas, Maximiano Hernandez Olivas, Cresencio Hernandez Olivas y Alfonso Hernandez Olivas; y a sus queridas hermanas: Esperanza Hernández Olivas, y Aurelia Hernández Olivas.

El legado de Petra continúa a través de sus numerosos nietos, que eran la luz de su vida.

La bondad, el espíritu fuerte y la dedicación de Petra a su familia y a su fe nunca serán olvidados. Su recuerdo vivirá en los corazones de todos los que la conocieron y la amaron.
