It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Rosa Maria Gonzalez, who left this world on April 14, 2026, in San Antonio, Texas. Born on August 20, 1948, in Mexico, Rosa’s journey through life was a testament to the enduring power of love, faith, and family.

Rosa was a woman whose heart overflowed with kindness and devotion. She held a deep love for her family, cherishing every moment spent together, especially their Sunday dinners—a treasured tradition that brought joy and unity to those she cared for most. Her culinary talents were renowned among her loved ones; cooking was not merely a hobby for Rosa, but an expression of her love and nurturing spirit. She also delighted in shopping, exploring new places on travels with her husband and family, and found solace and inspiration in reading and listening to the word of God. Her faith was the cornerstone of her life, guiding her actions and bringing peace to all who knew her. Rosa’s beautiful voice lifted spirits as she sang praises, sharing the joy of music and worship with those around her.

Gonzalez; her dear children, Carlos Jose Gonzalez (Maria Yesenia Gonzalez) and Yolanda Contreras (Honorato Contreras); siblings Ruben Villarreal Segovia and Eglantina Gonzalez; grandchildren Priscila Martinez (Jp Martinez), Abraham Gonzalez, Eliud Contreras, and Damaris Sanchez (David Sanchez); as well as great-grandchildren David Sanchez and Daisy Sofia Sanchez. Each of these family members holds a special place in Rosa’s heart, a reflection of her boundless love and care.

Rosa was preceded in death by her beloved father Celso Villarreal, her mother Ramona Segovia, and her brother Celso Villarreal, whose memories she carried with her always.
