Maria Delcarmen Santoyo

María Del Carmen Santoyo nació en Zacatecas, México el 16 de julio de 1940. Pasó su infancia en San Juan Capistran, Zacatecas con sus padres Ilario Fernández e Isabel Najar, quienes la criaron junto con sus hermanos Isidra, Socorro, Lucio, Mario, Auciello, María De Los Ángeles, Juana, María De Jesús y Antonia. Allí encontró a su compañero de vida y muy querido esposo José Santoyo, con quien felizmente se casó el 30 de noviembre de 1956. Juntos llenaron su hogar con 12 niños con quienes Dios los bendijo. Carmelita se dedicó a ser una esposa, madre y ama de casa amorosa. En 1987 buscando una vida mejor, siguió a su esposo José y se mudó con su familia a Los Ángeles, California. En 1992 se mudó a Texas para estar más cerca de sus hijos. "Carmelita" como era conocida por todos, era una persona muy apreciada y respetada por quienes tenían la dicha de conocerla. Carmelita disfrutaba estar con su familia y le gustaba mucho la música. Su familia recuerda con cariño lo detallada y amorosa que era con ellos. Ella era tan querida no solo por sus hijos y nietos, sino que también era muy querida por todas sus nueras, yernos, y por la familia de su esposo que rápidamente se convirtió en su propia familia. Le encantaba atender a su familia, jugar juegos de lotería y la mayoría disfrutaba estar sentada afuera mirando el hermoso jardín y las flores que plantaba el abuelo. Carmelita deja atrás una gran familia llena de dolor por su partida, pero aún más llena de gratitud a Dios por la oportunidad de compartir con una mujer tan maravillosa y especial.

María del Carmen Santoyo es precedida en la muerte por su padre Ilario Fernández y su madre Isabel Najar. Sus hermanos Isidra, Lucio, Mario y Juana Fernández. Sus hijos Juan, Pio, Lala y Alicia Santoyo.

Le sobreviven sus hermanos Auciello, María De Jesús, María De Los Ángeles, Socorro y Antonia Fernández: sus hijos Ninfa, Sofía, José Pedro, Isaías, Rito, Martha, Mario y Juan: 31 nietos, 65 bisnietos y 17 tataranietos.
