Lupita had many titles: daughter, sister, “prima”, “amiga”, “sobrina”, "cunada", “tia”, wife, “mami”, mom, “suegra”, and “wuela”. Throughout it all, one constant remained…her love and devotion to the family. Home was a house full of love, with mom always cooking our favorite foods. She loved to garden, crochet, make and buy jewelry, tinker around the house, watch her “novelas”, travel, and try new foods. She enjoyed the outdoors, drinking her “cafecito con campechanas”, while listening to nature in the background. She loved to sing “y silvarle a los pajaritos”. When asked if she wanted to do or try something new, her motto was always “buennno”. There wasn’t a person she met, who did not feel the kindness she radiated. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Servando Martinez; her parents, Santos and Juana “Hans” Quiroz; her siblings, Felipe, Sofia, Antonia, and Ignacio; and her granddaughter, Crystal Marie Martinez.
She is survived by her loving children, Araceli Martinez, Jesus (Zulema) Martinez, Herman (Mary) Martinez, Luis (Angela) Martinez, and Dorina Madrid; grandchildren, Henry Isacc (Kasey C.) Martinez, Kaitlyn Amber Martinez, James Isaac Martinez, Casandra Marie (Rene) Campos, Nicole Marie Martinez, Monique Marie Martinez, Luis Fabian Martinez, Luis Esteban Martinez, Ximena Anai Martinez, Dorina Alexandra “Ale” Madrid, Nicolas Eduardo Gonzales; great-granddaughter Isabella Rose Martinez; her siblings, Luis Quiroz, Ricardo (Guillermina) Quiroz, Dolores (Manuel) Maya, and many cousins, nephews and nieces.
