Orfa Lopez Limon

Orfa Limon was born on December 17, 1945, in Sugarland, Texas. She was the baby of six siblings. She was preceded in death by her father, Lazaro Limon; her mother, Paz Limon; her sisters, Rebecca L. Martinez and Rachel L. Vasquez; her brother, Lazaro Limon Jr.; and two brothers-in-law, Armando Vazquez and Jimmy A. Casas, as well as her recently passed niece, Sandra L. Quiroz.

She left behind her sister, Tavita L. Casas, two brothers, Ruben Limon and Dario Limon, and her many nieces and nephews.

She was described as the quiet one amongst her sisters, but there was one thing she was very vocal about that irritated her more than anything, and that was as she would say those “dirty squirrels”. She enjoyed looking out the window, watching the birds eat from the many feeders that she religiously filled. If she were home and saw a squirrel in the backyard, anywhere near one of her bird feeders, she would bolt outside, waving her hands in the air, yelling to scare them off. Sometimes she would grab a broom to chase after them and always come back inside, complaining about those “dirty squirrels”.

Orfa took every opportunity that was given to her and always lived life to the fullest. Her favorite thing to do was travel. She loved going on vacation. There wasn’t a trip she didn’t want to go on. She traveled to so many places. When she wasn’t traveling the world she was either at work, running around town by herself or with her sisters Rachel and Tavita shopping, with her family celebrating on of the many birthday or holidays, or at home in her comfy leopard print pajamas watching her favorite news anchor “David” or one of the “old cowboy movies” with her sister Tavita and brother in law Jimmy with whom she’d playfully argue about the reruns that they have seen over a 100 times.

She had many favorite things and people, but what everyone knew she favored the most was Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley. She found great joy in singing along to Elvis’s song, and even towards the end of her life, she was comforted by his music and traditional hymns.

Orfa had wisdom, knew the value of hard work, always had ears that listened, arms that hugged and held on to you vigorously, a passion and love for God and her family that was never-ending, and a heart that was made of gold.

She was a devoted daughter, loving sister, cherished aunt, great-aunt, cousin, and friend.

Orfa’s life was a testament to simple joys, unwavering family bonds, and a resilient spirit. Her life was a blessing, her memory a treasure. She was loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure.
