Irene

Marquez

Irene G. Marquez was a  wife, mother, stepmother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, and friend. She left this world suddenly on December 5, 2023.

She was born to Jose and Emma Garcia on January 19, 1941. She attended Hollister High in San Benito County.  After high school, she worked various jobs as a cook as that was her passion.  She then married Richard Marquez and had a big blended family of 11 children.

Irene loved spending time in the kitchen, creating delicious meals especially tamales for the holidays. She loved to crochet and sew.  She enjoyed watching her favorite westerns and Judge Judy.  She also loved a day at the ballpark watching kids that she knew play baseball.

She is survived by her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and many more family and friends.  She will be forever loved and missed.   There will not be any services held but we do appreciate your love and support during this difficult time.
