Virginia Hill Lopez

Born on January 23, 1943, to Canderlaria Fernandez and William Robert Hill, Virginia grew up in El Paso and attended El Paso High School. She dedicated her professional life to caring for others, spending decades working in local hospitals and finding her true calling as a patient representative, where her natural empathy provided comfort to countless families.

Virginia often remarked that she had a good life, but a hard life. Facing the early departures of both her father and her husband, she rose to the challenge as a resilient single mother. She raised her children with a strict but deeply loving and caring hand. Her cooking was a source of warmth for her family, and her devotion to her grandchildren and great grandchildren was unmatched. Even in her final days, Virginia's sharp mind and fierce love never wavered, ensuring she never missed a single family birthday.

She is survived by her loving children, Virginia Gurrola, Alfred (Shirley) Aceituno and Debra (Steven) Patrick, as well as her sister, Rosa Perez. Her legacy of resilience lives on through her cherished grandchildren, Thaddeus, Michael, Allison, and Rachel, and great grandchildren Hailey and Isabella. Virginia is now reunited with her beloved daughter Teresa, her mother Canderlaria, and her brother William, who preceded her in death.

A public service to celebrate Virginia's life will be held on August x, 2026, at Funeraria del Angel Central, located at 3839 Montana Ave. Viewing times are currently being determined. Following the service, Virginia will be laid to rest at Rest Lawn Cemetery. All who knew and loved her are welcome to attend. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in her honor to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation
