Maria Concepcion Gomez

Maria Concepcion Gomez, 67, of Liberty, Texas, passed away peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer, on Sunday, August 20, 2023, in Houston, Texas, with her family by her side. She was born on December 18, 1955, in Mexico, to the late Gregorio and Josefa Sorola Borrego.

Maria was a loving wife, mother, Yaya, sister and friend to many. She was very selfless and loved nothing more than helping others or proudly giving the shirt off her back to those in need. Maria was shy and quiet but stayed extremely strong through her valiant battle with cancer. She enjoyed baking cakes, which she did for years, and sewing wedding and quinceañera dresses. Maria was passionate about sewing things for her grandchildren whom she loved unconditionally. Her favorite hobby of all was spending time with her family.

Maria was dedicated to her faith in the Lord. She and her husband Jose were longtime members at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Liberty where she was very active, serving on the communion ministry and in various other capacities. Maria will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who knew and loved her.

Maria was preceded in death by her parents; and her brothers Jose Guadalupe Silva and Isidro Borrego. She leaves behind to cherish her loving memory, her husband of fifty years, Jose Manuel Gomez; her daughter Josselin Diaz and husband Jose; her grandchildren Angelli, Sofia, and Valentina Diaz, Joseph, Josue, and John Garcia; her aunt who raised her as her own, Guadalupe Sorola; her siblings Salomon Silva, Maria Ibarra, Arturo Silva, Isabel Ramos, and Juan Francisco Silva; her many nieces and nephews; and a host of other loving relatives and friends.

Friends are invited to visit with the family from 5pm until 8pm, on Friday, August 25, 2023, at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, 411 Milam Street in Liberty. A Rosary will be recited at 6pm at the church. A Mass of the Resurrection will be held at 10am, on Saturday, August 26, 2023, at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church with Fr.
