Sylvia Ann Gomez

Sylvia Ann Gomez entered into her eternal rest on the loving arms of our Lord on October 30, 2025, at the age of 72. She was born on October 12, 1953 in San Antonio, Texas to Josephine Smith and Raymond Guevara. Sylvia lived a life full of joy, music, and love for her family and friends.

Sylvia had a deep appreciation for life’s simple pleasures — from listening to her favorite songs to enjoying her beloved shows. She had a passion for music, especially 90s country and classic oldies, often filling her home with the comforting sound of her record player spinning familiar tunes. She was also an avid fan of The Flintstones, collecting cherished memorabilia over the years that always brought a smile to her face. She enjoyed watching westerns and novelas, never missing an episode of her favorites. Sylvia was also an active bowler and proud member of a local bowling league, where she shared laughter, camaraderie, and many memorable moments with friends.

Butterflies held a special place in her heart, a reflection of her gentle and joyful spirit.

Sylvia will be reunited in heaven with her parents, Josephine De Herrera, and Raymond Guevara.

Her memory will forever live in her children, Loretta Ann Gomez, and Ruben G. Gomez (Martha); husband, Ruben O. Gomez, grandchildren, Joe Angel Tabares, Jr., Jonathan Alexander Gomez, Iliana Isabel Gomez, Milo Joseph Gomez, Oliver Ryu Gomez; great-grandchildren, Delilah Alejandra Tabares, and Ilene Rae Sandoval; cherished companion, Leonardo Ortiz; fur-babies, Goldie Lee and Lucky. Siblings, Martha Acevedo, Janie Elizondo (Senovio), Rosa Cervera, Maria Elizondo (Rogelio), Margaret Castaneda (Alberto), Diana Torres (Robert), Ramon Guevara (Belia Cardona); and numerous nieces, nephews and extended family and friends. She will be remembered for her kind heart, her love of music, her playful sense of humor, and her unique way of bringing light and warmth wherever she went.

The Gomez family would like to extend a special thank you to Leonardo Ortiz and Jessica Ann Orosco whose love and devotion surrounded Sylvia during her illness. Your strength, patience, and gentle care were a true blessing, and your kindness brought light to her final days.
