Our dear mother and loving sister, Stacy, was born on March 29, 1934, one of twelve children, in Escobares, Texas. She forever reminisced and spoke of memorable times helping her father pump water down by the river and taking long walks to her grandmother’s in Los Saenz. She embodied the best of qualities; a devoted Catholic with a strong faith in God, unconditional love, strength of spirit and an unending generosity. She enjoyed going on church retreats, where she reunited with her loving husband, Manuel Bravo. After retiring with 26 years at Dr. Beardsley’s, she and Manuel embarked on a one-of-a-kind journey in their fifth wheeler. They were able to travel and see the beautiful sights of 48 of the 50 states! She had a zest for life and was an inspiration to all who met her. She was a very loving and strong-willed woman who valued God, and her loving family over all else. She welcomed everyone with her perpetual smile and open arms! She will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts! “The pain of missing you is a beautiful reminder of the joy of loving you.” –Dean Jackson
