Sipriana Santos

Sipriana Martinez De Los Santos was born in Klein, Texas to Gorge and Alifonsa D. Martinez on February 16, 1927. Her husband Eulalio V. De Los Santos, son Ruben De Los Santos, grandson Christopher "Bud" De Los Santos, and brothers and sister all preceded her in death.

Those left to cherish her memory are her loving sons, Steve and Gloria of Roswell, Richard and Betty of Ruidoso, Johnny and Silvia of Roswell, Rudy and Nellie of Roswell, Carlos of Roswell, Robert and Kay of Portales, Leroy of Roswell, Chucky and Maria of Roswell. Her loving daughters Virginia and Rudy Garcia of Portales, Valarie and husband Carlos Marrujo of Roswell. She is also survived by her grandchildren Rebecca, Carlitos, Joseph, Michael, April, Misty, Chris, Doreen, Yvette, Anthony, Melissa, Ryan, Andrea, Aaron, Robbie, Mark, Thomas, Joseph, Matthew, Kristi, Ricky, Ronnie, Rhonda, and Renee. Sipriana had 31 great grandchildren and seven Great-great grandchildren. She loved every single one of them very much.

Sipriana was a very hard working woman. She worked at St. Mary's Hospital for nine years and at Sunset Villa for thirteen years doing housekeeping. She was a hard working mother to put food on the table for all of her eleven children to eat. Sipi loved to laugh and enjoyed spending time with her family. She was an active member at St. Johns Perish. She devotedly prayed her rosary daily for her loved ones and the tragedies in the world today. She was a strong individual and put others before herself. She was a very devoted person to all that crossed her path. From family to strangers she treated them as if they were her own. She was a blessing to all.

She is now walking the streets of gold with the love of her life and her son. She will be missed dearly by many but have shared a life for all to cherish the memories people shared with Sipi.
