Maria Elena Juarez

Due to her perseverance and strength, her children and grandchildren were gifted with the passion and resilience to collectively achieve tremendous personal and professional success in all their endeavors. She will always be the matriarch of our family and her legacy and unconditional love will live on for generations. Maria Elena relished life's little pleasures such as gardening and petting her precious dogs Chachis and Curly.

She was a mother figure to countless family members and is survived by her brothers, Carlos and Jose Morin and her sister, Julia Saenz; her children, Victor Juarez, President/CEO and partner Wayne Blosat of Houston, TX; Zulema Chapa, Office Administrator and husband, Hector Chapa; Dr. Mario Juarez and wife, Tisha Juarez; Maria Antonieta McRae, Retired Professional and Maria Luisa Garza; loving and devoted grandchildren, JoAnn, Marisa, Jaime, Jeanette, Loretta, Hector Jacob, Renee, Nicholas, Leslie-Anne, RJ, Jonathon, Susie, Ben and Becky; in addition to numerous great-grandchildren, other family members and friends.

The family would like to express a special thanks to Vistas Hospice for their care, support and compassion.
