It is with deep respect and heartfelt sorrow that we announce the passing of Maria De La Luz Roacho, who left this world on April 18, 2026, in Whittier, California. Born on May 5, 1946, in Durango, Mexico, Maria led a life dedicated to hard work and devotion, treasured by her family and all who knew her.

Maria's career as a seamstress in the furniture industry spanned an impressive 40 years, during which she displayed remarkable skill and craftsmanship. Her dedication and talent left a lasting mark on her trade, reflecting the strength and perseverance that defined her life.

Her family was central to Maria's heart. She is survived by her beloved daughter Deborah Carbone, her son Luis Lopez, and three cherished grandchildren who carried forward the light of her spirit. Maria also mourned the loss of her daughter Amparo Barron, a loss that deeply impacted her but never diminished the warmth she shared with her loved ones.

Maria De La Luz Roacho’s legacy will forever be remembered through her unwavering commitment to her craft, her enduring love for her family, and the kindness she extended to those around her. She will be deeply missed, but her spirit and the values she embodied will continue to inspire all who had the privilege to know her.
