Ines Eulalia Reyes, age 87, of Chicago, Illinois, was born in Quito, Ecuador on March 13, 1938, and passed away on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. Ines was the beloved wife of the late, Manuel T. Reyes, most loving mother of Gonzalo (Nancy), Patrick, and Manuel (Mary) Reyes, adoring grandmother of Manuel Alexander Reyes, dear daughter of the late Delia Mino and Luis Trujillo, loving sister of Luis and Gerardo Trujillo.
Those who knew Ines will remember her for her playful smile that could light up even the hardest days. Her fierce commitment to her family was the very heartbeat of her life—felt in every meal she cooked, every story she told, and every quiet moment spent simply being present. An avid animal lover, Ines shared her gentle spirit not only with her cherished pets but with every creature fortunate enough to cross her path. Kind to all, she leaves behind countless small acts of compassion that blossomed into lasting memories. Though she is no longer with us, her warmth, generosity, and joy will live on in the hearts of all who were lucky enough to know her.
