Mary Quintanilla

Mary Quintanilla, 61, of Brownsville, Texas, a loving wife, mother, grandma, aunt, sister, and friend, entered into eternal rest on October 3, 2022. She was born on July 10, 1961, in Brownsville, Texas.

Left to cherish her memory is her devoted husband, Carlos Quintanilla, Jr; children Carlos Quintanilla, III (Roxanne) and Bryan V. Quintanilla; sibling – Lucy (Julio) Quintanilla of Von Ormy, TX.

Mary was always the life of the party. She enjoyed laughing and making others laugh. Her facial expressions always spoke loudly on how she felt about any given topic. She always commemorated the milestones in life like birthdays, weddings, homecomings with hand-crafted decorations and mementos. She loved crafting, preparing delicious meals, and spending time with her friends playing loteria. She was Grandma Mary to many of the children of her son’s high school friends and thought it was important to give back to the community. She will be remembered for her larger-than-life smile and attitude, her fun-loving personality, and her relentless desire to live life to the fullest.
