Maria was born on April 16, 1960 to Jesus and Conception (Torres) Gomez at Mason, Texas, where she was raised. Maria had 21 brothers and sisters growing up. Maria moved from Texas to travel the country, and found her home in Colorado, and eventually in Lyman, Nebraska.

Maria was a positive person and always had a big smile on her face. She never did anything before she got herself dressed up and her make-up just right. She loved her God, family, and friends with all her heart and her grandchildren came before anyone else. She always kept a very clean house and was described as a ‘clean-freak’ by her family. Maria loved to spend her time watching her Soap Operas and cooking great food for her family. She loved to attend dances to listen and dance to Hispanic music. She lived her life to the fullest and will always be remembered as a loving mother, and grandmother.
