Cristina dedicated much of her life to serving her community. She spent 24 years working in retail at Furrs before transitioning to a 15-year career in law enforcement with the El Paso Processing Center. A devoted member of the Catholic Church, she found great joy and purpose in her faith and cherished the time she spent with her family.
She is survived by her loving children, Samantha Matthews (wife Andrea) and Melissa Santa Anna (wife Marisa Curiel), as well as her beloved granddaughter, Madeleine Louise Weathers. She is also survived by her mother, Lupe Navarro, and her siblings, Nora Chavez (husband Gonzalo), Corinne Hernandez, and Martha Navarro.
Cristina is preceded in death by her father, Hipolito Navarro.
Her warmth, strength, and unwavering love for her family and faith will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
