Leonor Antonia Flores Lopez passed away on Thursday, November 27, 2008, at St. Charles Hospital. She was born on May 29, 1921, in San Buena Ventura, Coahuila, Mexico. She was a resident of Martin, Ohio for over 55 years. Leonor was a dedicated mother of ten, Otila L. Borjas, Estela (Esequiel) Escobar, Leonor Hernandez, Jose E.F. (Susana) Lopez, Aurora (Raul) Cardenas, Jorge A. (Vicky) Lopez, Juan David (Rosa) Lopez, and Jose Luis F. Lopez. She enjoyed nothing more in life than spending time with them. In addition, her 32 grandchildren and 32 great-grand-children were her pride and joy. She spent her time cooking authentic Mexican foods for her family and always cherished having them around daily. She took pleasure in planting her flowers every spring or just spending every Sunday outdoors barbequing with her family and friends. She appreciated her sugary snacks, especially caramels. She loved to shop for any occasion and always dressed herself and her family with a sense of style. She will be greatly missed. She was preceded in death by her husband of 58 years, Antonio M.
