Alicia Lopez Cuevas' Obituary
With heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved mother, Alicia Lopez Cuevas, who left us on September 5, 2024. Born in Durango, Mexico, on February 13, 1930, Alicia was a devoted Catholic whose life was a rich tapestry of endless love, joyful laughter, and unwavering strength. She was the cherished daughter of Encarnacion Lopez and Carmen Galvan and a beacon of light to her family and everyone fortunate enough to know her.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Manuel Cuevas Padilla, and her siblings, Luz Maria Lopez Tamez, Lidia Lopez Arizpe, and Catalina Lopez Perez. Her beautiful life will forever be cherished in the lives of her children: Yolanda C Ramirez (Jorge Ramirez+), Maria Magdalena Cuevas, Sylvia C Dickerson (Jerry Dickerson), Veronica C Alegria (Pedro Alegria), and Manuel Cuevas Jr. (Rubi Longoria); her grandchildren: Bianca M Patino, Lizette C Ramirez, P. Damien Alegria, Priscilla N Alegria-Jackson, and Brandon J Alegria; and her brother Rafael Lopez.
Alicia had a deep passion for gardening, an impeccable taste palette for cooking, and cherished moments spent with her family. Her playful humor and spontaneous dance moves brought joy and laughter to all who knew her. Her legacy of love and happiness will be celebrated at a memorial service at St. Theresa Catholic Church on Saturday, September 14, 2024. We invite everyone who knew and loved her to join us in honoring the remarkable woman she was.
