Obituary

Our beloved Maria Elena Yslas, known to many as Mary Ellen, was the heart and soul of her family. A woman whose love was deeply felt and whose presence brought warmth, comfort, and joy to everyone around her. She is survived by her devoted husband, Hector, mother Mary Lou, sister Felicia and her cherished children: Mando, Vanessa, Veronica, Tiffany, Priscilla, and Kenny, each of whom carries her love with them always.

Maria found peace and happiness in the outdoors. Camping beneath open skies and fishing by the water were among her greatest joys, especially when those moments were shared with family. Home was where her heart lived most fully, and her kitchen was the center of it all. An amazing cook, she brought her family together through meals filled with love, tradition, and laughter. To know her was to feel truly cared for. She was incredibly loving, endlessly sweet, and always put others before herself.

Nothing brought her more pride and happiness than being a Nana. She was an amazing grandma to Larissa, AJ, Sito, Kailene, Andres, Camila, Liliana, Jayson, Jazmine, Richard, Baylie, Lucien, Aralise, Kenneth, Elijah, and Avianna. She loved each of her grandchildren fiercely and unconditionally, creating memories they will carry with them forever.

Maria Elena Yslas will be remembered for her kind heart, her nurturing spirit, and the way she held her family together through love and devotion. She was our home, our comfort, and our greatest blessing. Her love lives on through her family, forever guiding us.
