Mrs. Maria Elena Rios' Obituary
Maria Elena Rios graciously left our earthly presence on July 3, 2007. Mrs. Rios was born in Paris, Texas and moved to the West Texas area where she lived the majority of her life with her deceased spouse of more than thirty years, Frank Rios. She moved to Houston in 1998 to be close to her daughters. Maria Elena Rios was a true inspiration to her three daughters, JoAnn, Lorene and Nancy Alice. She was the perfect grandmother to her two granddaughters, Kristie and Gabriela. She is survived by her daughters, granddaughters, five sisters and one brother. Her impact on our lives has been that of kindness, gentleness and unconditional love and strength. For that we will truly miss our mom and our grandmother. May God watch her as she keeps her guardian vigil over her loved ones.
