Maria "Chelo"

M. Ramon

Maria M. Ramon (Chelo) 83 entered eternal rest on February 16, 2025, in Harlingen, Texas. She was born on September 30, 1941, to Juan and Maria Salinas Garza in Santa Rosa, Texas.

Chelo was known for her strong faith and belief in our Lord. She always prayed for her family and those who called upon her. Her love for planting was no secret as her beautiful garden was always blooming with many types of plants that she brought to life. Through the magic touch of her hands, she found joy in crocheting gifts for her grandchildren and was an amazing seamstress who could fix anything that was given to her. In our family, Chelo was not only our strongest prayer warrior but a bright light that guided us daily. She will be greatly missed by her loved ones and those who knew her.

Chelo is preceded in death by her daughter, Amy Ramon; her father, Juan Garza; and her mother, Maria Garza; brothers, Manuel Garza, Ambrocio Garza, Juan Garza, and Guadalupe Garza; sisters, Rosa Cortez, Maria Luisa Alaniz, Cleofas Rivera, and Irene Gonzalez.

Left behind to cherish her loving memory are her two children, Ana Lopez (Fabian), and Amanda Rodriguez (+Lorenzo); grandchildren, Anika (Alexis), Davian Lopez, Brandon Rodriguez, Jacob Rodriguez, Aiden Rodriguez; great grandchildren, Adrian Cisneros, Adalyn Cisneros, Aliani Cisneros, Honorary niece Dayna Hernandez (her children, Taelyn and Lyric) and numerous nephews, nieces, cousins, relatives, and friends.

A graveside service will be held on Saturday February 22, 2025, at Santo Nombre Cemetery in Santa Rosa, Texas at 3:00 p.m.
