Maria Gonzales

Maria Gonzalez went to be with her Lord and Savior on February 12, 2023 at the age of 89 years of age surrounded by her family until her last breath. To say that she will be missed does not describe the void she left behind. She will be greatly missed.

Maria de Efren, as family would call her, but she would say “No, es Efren de Maria because he is my husband” goes to show the sense of humor she had. She had a contagious laugh and known to do gritos when enjoying music. She loved to cook for her family to enjoy Sunday breakfast at the “grandma’s house”. She loved gardening and enjoyed spending time with her husband doing yard work and landscaping. She enjoyed outings to the beach, playing bingo, and going dancing. She especially loved to spend time with her family, sitting around that table or sitting outside talking and enjoying the evenings. She is a woman of faith and strong believer in Jesus Christ, her Lord and Savior. She was a strong woman and lifeline of the family.

She is survived by her husband, Efren Gonzalez, daughters, Esther Gonzalez, Elida Gonzales, and Stephanie Sager (Keith), and son, Eleazar Gonzales. She has 11 grandchildren and 24 great grandchildren.

A visitation for Maria will be held Monday, February 20, 2023 from 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. with a rosary at 7:00 p.m. at Heavenly Grace Funeral Home, 26873 N. White Ranch Road, La Feria, Texas 78559. A funeral service will occur Tuesday, February 21, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. followed by a burial 11:00 a.m. at Heavenly Grace Memorial Park, 26873 N. White Ranch Road, La Feria, Texas 78559.
