With a warm heart and a profound sense of gratitude, I am pleased to inform you that our beloved mother, Ernestina Hagy (Valenzuela), has peacefully joined the Lord today, July 20, at 3:08 p.m. We find solace in knowing that she has found eternal happiness in the embrace of our Heavenly Father. Ernestina lived a life filled with love, compassion, and kindness, and her presence brought immense joy to all who knew her. She touched our lives in countless ways, and her memory will forever be cherished. In celebration of her beautiful life, we are holding a memorial service on July 24 at Saint Joseph's Catholic Church in Fort Stockton, Texas. The Rosary starts at 9 a.m. followed by Mass and the burial service will be immediately after at Fort Stockton Catholic Cemetery.

During this time of remembrance, we invite you to join us in celebrating Ernestina's journey to eternal peace. Though we will miss her dearly, we take comfort in knowing that she is in the loving arms of our Lord Jesus Christ, free from all worldly burdens. We are incredibly grateful for the love and support we have received from friends and family during this time. Your presence and well-wishes have been a great source of strength for us. Let us come together to celebrate a life well-lived and rejoice in the knowledge that Ernestina has found everlasting happiness in the presence of our Lord.
