The time has come to turn the page on our beloved mom’s journey in this life. A new chapter has begun as she transitions to her new role in the afterlife, with her spirit free to roam amongst her spiritual family.
She was preceded in death by husband, Jose Mendoza, father, Cipriano Villarreal, mother, Rita Villarreal, daughter, Silvia Mendoza, brother, Juan Villarreal, grandsons, Jaime Gutierrez and Ronnie Schultz. She is survived by two sisters, Angela Mendoza and Aurora Gonzalez, and numerous nieces and nephews.
Before her departure, she filled her children’s hearts with love, laughter and a knowledge only she could gift us. For this, we are blessed, and she will be dearly missed.
