We are all so grateful for the great mother, daughter, sister, aunt and cousin she was. We were blessed with the best! She loved and accepted a lot of friends, family and strangers she may have met for who they are. Alicia was never afraid to try anything. Alicia was very courageous. She was wild and crazy in the best of ways and marched to the beat of her own drum. She could have you laughing for hours. She loved gossiping to her daughter n law Shaila Hinojosa as well as with some of her sisters if she wasn’t upset with them. Alicia loved all her children, grandchildren, her mother, brother, sisters, cousins, nieces and nephews. Alicia’s Faith with God was so unmatched that not anyone or anything like her cancer can take or beat her down or take her faith away.
