Mary Ortiz Obituary
Mary Helen was born on August 30, 1955, in Stamford, TX. She was known and loved by everyone she came across. Loved football season even more than her Cowboys. Most of all she loved family time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Never wanting to miss a moment from them. Riding along with her one and only daughter and making great memories. She loved being on the phone with her sisters and family checking on everyone.
She had a heart of gold. She will be missed and never forgotten. We love you, our lil’ Ol’ lady.
She is preceded in death by her father Eulogio Guerrero, her mother Isadora Guerrero, her sister Sylvia Escobedo, her brother Rudy Guerrero, her grandfather and grandmother Theodore and Felicita Guerrero.
She leaves behind to cherish her memory, her daughter Gloria and husband Juan Lopez, her son Alberto Ortiz, her sisters Barbara Perez, Nancy Sandoval, Valerie Rodriguez, Matilda Guerrero, Margaret Gonzales, and Rachel Guerrero, her brother Freddy Guerrero, her grandchildren Anthony Ramirez, Crystal Torres, Lanai Ramirez, and Kristy Arredondo, her great grandchildren Zach Gonzales, Zayleigh Ramirez, Jo’Phiruse Torres, Ja’Varice Torres, Xeomara Ramirez, Xayven Valles, Maliah Rangel, Jamae Ramirez, and Jeremiah Ramirez, and a host of other relatives and friends.
