In Loving Memory of Tiburcia De Ibarra August 19, 1936 - July 11, 2025
Tiburcia De Ibarra, beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on July 11, 2025, at the age of 88. Born on August 19, 1936, in Mexico to Bernabe Perez and Estefana Estrada, Tiburcia lived a life rooted in love, faith, and family.
A devoted homemaker, Tiburcia took great joy in cooking for her large family, sharing meals that were made with love and tradition. She was known for her skills in knitting and crocheting, and for her warm, giving heart. She cherished long walks, watching her favorite novelas-especially La Rosa De Guadalupe-and was always up for a new adventure or a good game of bingo.
Her Catholic faith guided her life, and her kindness and strength were felt by all who knew her. Tiburcia is survived by her children: Juan Martin Ybarra and wife Beverly, Rafael Ybarra, Francisco Ybarra, Reverend Soledad Ybarra Phillips and husband Mike, Demetria Garcia, Ana Maria Ybarra Estrada and husband Erbey, Teresa De Jesus Ybarra Cervantes and husband Juan, and Norma Leticia Ybarra Vasquez and husband Anastacio Jr.
She also leaves behind numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild, all of whom brought her immense pride and joy. She is preceded in death by her husband Mateo Ibarra and both parents, Bernabe and Estefana, her son Miguel Ybarra, and her daughter Roberta Ybarra.
