Obituary

Maria Guadalupe Roman, 74, peacefully entered eternal rest on January 9, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. She was born on January 4, 1952, to Maria de Jesus Sanchez Carlos and Miguel Garcia Escañuela. Born in Mexico and one of thirteen children, Maria was raised with deep faith, strong family values, and a lifelong devotion to those she loved. Maria was a cherished wife, devoted mother, loving grandmother, and proud great-grandmother. A woman of grace and quiet strength, she expressed her love through caring for others. She was a wonderful cook who found joy in preparing homemade meals that brought her family together. She loved flowers and took great pleasure in tending her garden, where her nurturing spirit truly shined. Maria's heart was always with her family. She faithfully supported her grandchildren at their sports events and after-school activities whenever she could. She enjoyed going shopping with her daughters, and cherished quality time with her family.

Gentle, selfless, and deeply loving, Maria was the heart and glue of her family, a blessing whose legacy of love, faith, and kindness will live on in all who were blessed to know her.

Maria is survived by her loving husband, Raul Roman; her children, Victor (Lorena) Roman, Doris (Luis) Roman, Norma (Concho) Roman, Yolanda (Antonio) Roman, Coco (Hugo) Roman, and Maria "Lupita" Roman; her grandchildren, Karina, Sarai, Victor Jr., Pepe, Stephanie, Kaylan, Chuy, Ricky, and Toñito; and her great-grandchildren, Araceli and Adalina. She is also survived by numerous siblings, nieces, nephews, and extended family members whom she loved dearly.

She was welcomed into heaven by her parents, Maria and Miguel, and her beloved brother, Raul Garcia Sanchez.
