Maria De Jesus Rivera Hernandez

December 25, 1929 — April 21, 2023

Dearest Friends and Family,

God has opened his arms and called our precious Mother back home.  
 
Maria de Jesus Rivera Hernandez,” Nana”, led an amazing life that spanned from her special date of birth in Guadalajara Jalisco, Mexico on Christmas Day of December 25, 1929 – April 21, 2023.  She is reunited in Spirit with Her Husband, Efren, her Mom, Margarita, Brothers: Francisco, Alfredo, and Ramon, her Son-in-Law, Gary, her Grandson, Joshua, and many dear friends. 

Mami innately understood the interconnectivity of our lives as humans. Her life was rooted in that special emotion we call love and her actions were aligned with the teaching,  Love Your Neighbor As Thyself.  She always showed up with a full heart and generously shared her time, talents, and treasures, with joy.

Mami never let the limitations and hardships of her life stand in the way of her dreams.  Her ability to truly connect with every person she knew was a gift and as a result, she was able to touch many lives, and in-kind doors opened.  Love will be reflected back to her for eternity. 

Please join Maria's family in Celebrating Her Life and Spirit:

Siblings:  Martha, Eduviges, Aurora, and Joaquin

Children: Julia, Efren, Angelica, Veronica, and  Alejandra

Son-in-laws:  Brian and Aristeo

Grandchildren: Jonathan, Kassie, Ashley, Aaron, Xavier, and Julian

Grandson-in-law:  Tyler

Great Grandchildren:  Mia and Baby Huckemeyer

Dios ha abierto sus brazos y ha llamado a nuestra preciosa Madre de vuelta a casa.

 

 

María de Jesús Rivera Hernández, "Nana", llevó una vida increíble que se extendió desde su fecha especial de nacimiento en Guadalajara, Jalisco, México, el día de Navidad del 25 de diciembre de 1929 hasta el 21 de abril de 2023. Se reencuentra en espíritu con su esposo, Efrén, su Mamá, Margarita, hermanos: Francisco, Alfredo y Ramón, su yerno, Gary, su nieto, Joshua y muchos amigos queridos.

Mami entendió de manera innata la interconectividad de nuestras vidas como humanos. Su vida estaba arraigada en esa emoción especial que llamamos amor y sus acciones estaban alineadas con la enseñanza, Ama a tu prójimo como a ti mismo. Siempre se presentaba con el corazón lleno y generosamente compartía su tiempo, talentos y tesoros, con alegría.

Mami nunca permitió que las limitaciones y las dificultades de su vida se interpusieron en el camino de sus sueños. Su capacidad para conectarse verdaderamente con cada persona que conocía fue un regalo y, como resultado, pudo tocar muchas vidas y se abrieron puertas en especie. Su vida estaba arraigada en esa emoción especial que llamamos amor y ese amor será reflejado en ella por la eternidad.
