Felice V. Sena

Ignacio and her children were waiting to welcome her home. Rosary will

be said January 14, 2022 at 1:30p with Funeral Mass to follow at 2:00p. Mass of the Christian

Burial will follow in the Tucumcari Memorial Park Cemetery.

She was born June 2, 1931, in Tucumcari, N.M. to Marcello and Beatrice

Valverde. Felice met her soulmate Ignacio Sena and they were married

on February 9, 1948. While Ignacio proudly served his country in the

United States Air Force, Felice did the best she could making a home for

her children and being the glue for her family. “Granny” as she was

affectionally known by her grandkids was loving and could make a

mean tortilla, no one could make them like her, it was because they were

made with lots of love. She was a member of St. Anne Catholic Church

and the Christian Mothers. Granny loved her family and would help

anyone in need when she was able to travel, she enjoyed going to see

kids and grandkids. Felice enjoyed playing bingo and Yahtzee on

Saturday nights you could find her watching Golden Girls while

enjoying a coke and some Fritos. She was a woman of many words,

some good some not so good, but you knew that she loved you no matter

what. She was the one that everyone asked to babysit, because you knew

that your baby would be cuddled, loved, and held all day even though

she said she didn’t. She had a granny’s touch when you needed a big

hug, she was there with no judgement just a hug and a sweet kiss.

Granny loved her family, and she will be deeply missed.

Granny when you get to heaven give grandpa, Aunt Celina, Uncle Tony, Josh, and

Manuel a hug and tell them how much we miss them and can’t wait to

see them again.

The family would like to thank everyone for the prayers,

calls and visits but due to COVID the family will gather privately after

the graveside service.
