Lydia is a life-long resident of the beautiful Rio Grande Valley. She grew up in San Benito, Texas and graduated from San Benito High School. During her married years she became a Harlingenite. She rooted for the Harlingen Cardinals and the Dallas Cowboys and soon after the Harlingen Hawks but always the San Benito Greyhounds, first and foremost. Not a season went by that she didn’t get a chance to cheer: “go, go, go!” Because of Lydia all of her children were avid fans of all sports.

Lydia was a woman committed to her community. She was a Cub Scout Leader, a Room Mother, involved in the PTA at James Bowie Elementary back in our childhood days (1960’s-1980’s). Many will remember her waiting on tables on a Saturday morning at Danny’s Restaurant. She worked at MHMR Center on Rangerville Road and Valley Baptist Medical Center for many years and retired from Brownsville Medical Center.

Lydia was a proud woman who finished what she started and graduated from TSTC with an Associates Degree in Health Information Technology at the age of 53.

Lydia was a parishioner at Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church. She had such a passion for music that she embraced Christian music and sang wherever she went. She was a woman who loved life and loved everyone that she met.
