Josefina Franco Perales

Josefina Franco Perales 89, passed away on March 27, 2023.

Born on August 11, 1933, in Villa Union, Coahuila to Manuel Franco and Ninfa Perales. Josefina grew up in Coahuila and she moved to Reynosa, Tamaulipas in the late 60’s. There she met her late husband Bonifacio, and they were married for 47 years.
Josefina had the most optimistic spirit and love for life. She loved music and enjoyed painting in her later years. She loved all her children and members of her family and would receive everyone with open arms and love at her home. Her smile was contagious, her strength incomparable, and her love for life something anyone could wish for. She walked with faith in God, all her life, and now is walking beside God.
Josefina was preceded in death by her husband, Bonifacio Gutierrez; her parents Manuel and Ninfa, her siblings Jose, Diego, Tere, Ernesto, Armando, and Ninfa.
She is survived by her children, Raul Garcia, Armando Garcia, Guadalupe Garcia, Maximiliano Garcia, Juan Jose Garcia, Diana Garcia, Susana Garza y Gabriela Nunnery; twenty-one grandchildren, and twenty-four great grandchildren, and sisters Angelica and Dora Alicia.
