Delia H. Flores

Our beloved mother, Delia H. Flores, passed away in peace and grace on May 22, 2016 at the age of 86. She was a 1949 graduate of Corpus Christi High School. She volunteered in political elections and loved to read to children in elementary school. She was a strong woman having survived two major surgeries a year apart. She was an excellent cook and dedicated her life as CEO of the family. She was a giving and selfless person. She was proud of her children and loved and cherished her grandchildren. Her faith and love in the Lord was strong. Delia was well loved by all who knew her; especially her family who loved her, adored her and stayed by her side throughout her journey until the end.

We were blessed to have her as our mother and she will be greatly missed but never forgotten. We will always carry her in our hearts.
