Maria Anaya Lozano

Maria was the eldest of 15 children born to Primativo and Andrea (Garcia) Anaya.

Maria married Crisoforo Lozano on March 11, 1953 and then moved to California, she is survived by 5 children Alicia Lozano, Margie Pina, Lydia Lozano, Ida Osterberg and Chris Lozano.

Maria was a homemaker and loving mother, she hand made some of our clothes and loved cooking for her children, coming home to homemade tortillas made us jump for joy. Maria loved attending the Ted C Wills Senior Center for years; she also worked at the Sunset Community Center making sandwiches for seniors.

Maria faithfully attended St. Anthony’s of Padua Church and believed in prayer her whole life. Our family was blessed to enjoy our mother for 88 beautiful years, she will be deeply missed, but we know she is at peace with our Heavenly Father.

Our family would like to acknowledge the amazing caregivers at Hinds Hospice and our sister Ida Osterberg who faithfully cared for our Mother.
