MARIA DE LA LUZ CABRERA
Maria de la Luz Cabrera,74, entered eternal rest on Monday, March 2, 2026. She was born on June 20, 1951, in Laredo, Texas, where she was born, raised, and remained a proud lifelong resident.
She was a proud graduate of Raymond & Tirza Martin High School, Class of 1970. Maria was a woman of strength and resilience. She was also a breast cancer survivor, facing that battle with courage and determination.
Maria was a loving mother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. Above all, the role she cherished most was being a grandmother. Her greatest pride and joy were her granddaughters, U. S. Navy 3rd Class Petty Officer, Genesis Alazay Pechè, and Kylie Arlene Lopez, who were the light of her life. She was immensely proud of the young women they have become and took great joy watching them pursue their dreams and work hard to reach their goals. Their accomplishments brought her great happiness and were a source of pride in her life.
Maria loved watching scary movies, enjoyed wrestling, and found comfort and joy in music. She was the person everyone depended on — selfless, protective, and always willing to put the needs of others before her own.
As a woman of faith, Maria believed in God’s promises and the hope of eternal life. We take comfort in knowing she is now reunited with her loved ones and resting in the presence of our Lord. “Well done, good and faithful servant” (Matthew 25:23).
She was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Jose Cabrera and Tomasa Molina Cabrera, and her sisters, Guadalupe Muniz, Alicia Gomez, and Nicolasa Molina.
Ms. Cabrera is survived by her devoted daughter, Priscilla Lopez; her siblings, Rita Cabrera and Xavier Cabrera (Rosie); 11 nephews and nieces; 24 great-nieces and nephews; and 10 great-great-nieces and nephews.
