It is with great sorrow and enduring love that we announce the passing of our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, who left us way too soon. Manuela was a loving housewife who enjoyed being outdoors in her garden as much as possible. She was the heart of our family—kind, generous, and endlessly compassionate.

Manuela was born to Logracia Guerrero on June 8, 1938, in Presidio, Texas. She is survived by her daughters, Francisca Sosa (Miguel) and Maria Aramburo (Arsenio), and her son, Albert Gonzales III. She also leaves behind 6 grandchildren, Victoria West, Andres Hernandez, Sofia Allec, Teresa Paoli, Maria Gonzales Vongpanya, Erika Aramburo Fuentes, and 15 great-grandchildren. Manuela is also survived by four sisters and one brother.

She was preceded in death by her ever-loving husband, Albert G. Gonzales, her daughters Manuela Gonzales-Martinez and Maria Guadalupe Gonzales, and her sons Ricardo Gonzales and Joseph Gonzales.
