Obituary of Consuelo Najera
Wisdom 3:1-5, “The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them. They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead; and their passing away was thought an affliction and their going forth from us, utter destruction, but they are in peace. For if to others, indeed, they seemed punished, yet is their hope full of immortality; Chastised a little, they shall be greatly blessed, because God tried them and found them worthy of himself.”
NAJERA, Consuelo of Saginaw, Michigan, passed away on Thursday, November 22, 2019, at her home surrounded by her loving family at the age of 90. She was born September 3, 1929, in Pasadena, TX to the late Sacarias and Inez Guerra. She married Manuel Najera on June 23, 1951, at St. Joseph Catholic Church at which she was a faithful life member.
She was a proud member of the Damas de Guadalupe. In addition to raising a family of five, she also ran for many years a successful Avon distributorship and was the Saginaw News’ exclusive distributor for the East Side of Saginaw.
