Mary Alice

Solorio

Mary Alice Solorio, a beloved sister, aunt, friend, community member, and faithful  servant of God, passed away peacefully on May 18, 2025, at the age of 90.

Mary was born on January 13, 1935, in Nipomo, California, and raised in Hollister, the community she would call home for the rest of her life. She attended Sacred Heart  School and attended San Benito High School, where she built a foundation rooted in faith, integrity, and lifelong friendships.

A talented and dedicated hairstylist, Mary was the proud owner of Mary's Kut & Kurl, where she welcomed generations of families with care and kindness. Her salon became  more than a business—it was a gathering place and reflection of her warm, generous Spirit.

A devoted parishioner of Saint Benedict's Catholic Church, Mary's life was guided by  deep faith. She gave selflessly through her involvement in the Sacred Heart Altar  Society and the Young Ladies Institute (YLI), always seeking ways to serve her  church and community.

Mary will be remembered for her gentle heart, quiet strength, and unwavering devotion  to those she loved. Her life was a beautiful example of grace, humility, and service.

She is survived by numerous loving nieces and nephews, along with cousins and  lifelong friends who were like family to her.

A Funeral Mass will be held at Saint Benedict's Catholic Church on June 4, 2025, at 10:45 a.m., where all are welcome to celebrate her life and legacy.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in her memory to  Saint Benedict's Catholic Church.

Mary's life was a blessing, and her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and  loved her.
