Irene Concha Flores, devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on September 27, 2022. She was 96 years young. Concha was born April 7, 1926, in Los Angeles, California then journeyed with her family to Tijuana, Baja, California, Mexico, where she was raised humbly, with love.
Concha married the love of her life, Manuel Flores, and welcomed son Jose, or “Meño,” as she dotingly called him, in San Diego, California.
Concha was respected and adored by all who knew her. Her loving and gentle spirit mesmerized her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Concha will always be remembered for showering her love so purely and affectionately into the soul of her family and extended family.
Know that you hold a special place in the grandness of her forever heart because you have been her treasure or “Tesoro,” a term of endearment she often used to greet those in her presence.
Concha’s life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Love is patient; love is kind. It does not envy; it does not boast; it is not proud. It is not rude; it is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered; it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. (NIV84)
Irene Concha Flores is survived by her son, Jose Manuel Flores; daughter Elisa Figuera; grandchildren: Elaine, Alfredo, Eva, Evonne, Uriel, and Joseph; great-grandchildren: Kenneth, Jacob, Noah, Ariel, Dominic, Adrian, and Elijah; sisters: Francisca “Pancha” Cazares, Sylvia Cazares, y Gloria Cazares plus her many nephews and nieces. All of whom she loved and cared for deeply.
Rest in Paradise with eternal love.
