Socorro Martinez

Socorro Martinez, born April 13, 1942, a lifelong resident of Ensenada, NM went to be with the Lord on Monday, September 7, 2015 joining her beloved husband of 52 years, Oso Martinez. Socorro was preceded in death by her daughter, Georgia Pritz; parents, Ubaldo and Asencion Martinez; and several brothers and sisters. Many people say there is nothing like a mother's love, and they are right. Our mother was a wonderful person who showed love to everyone she came in contact with. She was caring and beautiful inside and out. She loved life, her family, and her friends. She touched many lives and left an imprint on those she came in contact with. Socorro’s laughter and generous spirit will be missed greatly by all her relatives, friends and all who knew her. Socorro is survived by her children; George and wife Jeanette Martinez, Angelo and wife Renee Martinez, Jonathan and wife Angela Martinez; grandchildren, Ashley, Michael, Maria Elena, Marisol, Miguel Angel, Justin, Anelisia, Cameron, Alexa, and Jayden, great grandson, Isayah; brothers, Albert Martinez and wife Gloria, Ramon Martinez and wife Rose; sister Margaret Valerio. A rosary will be recited on Saturday, September 19, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. at the San Jose Catholic Church in Los Ojos with the memorial Mass to be celebrated immediately after at 11:00 a.m. Socorro’s sons and grandsons will serve as pallbearers.  She leaves her loving memories to be cherished by all of us. Socorro will forever be in our hearts until we meet again. The family of Socorro Martinez has entrusted the care of their loved one to the DeVargas Funeral Home & Crematory of the Espanola Valley.
