Sandra Rincon Obituary

SANDRA SUZZETTE RINCON
MERCEDES - Sandra Suzzette Rincon 33 passed away Thursday, January 24, 2008 at her residents in Mercedes. She was born August 23, 1974 in Weslaco, TX daughter of Reynaldo and Margarita Rincon. She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents Alejandro and Rafaela Rincon; maternal grandfather PFC Miguel Castillo; aunts Lydia Garcia and Magdalena Cosme; uncles Obaldo Castillo and Genaro Rincon and one cousin Ofelia Garcia.
She is survived by her parents Reynaldo and Margarita Rincon; one brother Reynaldo Rincon Jr.; three sisters Bertha Betty (Luis) Rincon Gutierrez, Samantha Lee Rincon and Miranda Renee Rincon; maternal grandmother Emma Castillo; nieces and nephews Altisha Lee Chavez, Chelsea Renee Chavez, Deandra Deon Chavez, Luis Alberto Gutierrez Jr., Karina Elisa Gutierrez, Rey Anthony Rincon and Alejandro Emmanuel Rincon; 16 aunts and uncles and numerous cousins.
Sandra graduated from Mercedes High School in 1992. She was a devoted partner for HEB. She started out as a Customer Service Assistant at the age of 17 at the Mercedes location. Throughout the years she was relocated as she worked her way to be a Central Checkout Operation Manager at the Mission #2 HEB. Sandra was a well known and respected individual throughout the community. There is no doubt that she was and will always be a wonderful, pure-hearted person. Indeed, God truly takes the very best. She was a loving daughter, compassionate sister, caring aunt and most of all a dear friend. Let all of us never forget how beautiful her smile stood out. She will always be in our hearts, mind and spirit. Sandra would want us to laugh and live life to the fullest with no regrets. We need to remember her saying, "If it's my time, then it's my time." We know she will watch over her family and friends in the garden of Heaven surrounded by beautiful angels and music.
Visitation will be held today Monday, January 28, 2008, from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. with a rosary at 7 p.m.
Funeral mass will be held tomorrow Tuesday, January 29, 2008, at 10 a.m. at Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church in Mercedes. Interment will follow at Mercedes Memorial Restlawn.
Funeral services are under the direction of Hawkins Funeral Home in Weslaco.

I worked with Sandra at the SJ HEB. Whenever I worked and I knew Sandra was working I would always think TODAY WILL BE A GREAT DAY! She was awesome to work with and will be missed. She would always laugh when i would tell her I was so jealous of her freckles. (I have always wanted freckles.) She would show hers off on purpose and make me laugh.

PEGGY ESTRADA

MAY THE GRACE OF GOD ENLIGHTEN YOUR HEARTS IN THIS TIME OF GREAT SORROW...SHE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED, THIS IS FROM MY BROTHER LEROY CHAVEZ,PAULA G. FLORES AND PEGGY MARIE ESTRADA.
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
