Edelia Acuña Garza was born October 11, 1933, to Erineo and Maria (Cruz) Acuña in Nordheim, TX. As a young child she moved to West Texas. Where she worked with her family as a farmhand in the cotton fields picking cotton and as a migrant worker gathering fruit and vegetables from crops across the US. She married Antonio Garza on August 26, 1972, in Slaton, Tx.

 As an adult, she was a housekeeper for many Slaton residents. She established many long lasting friendships with her clients over her career. To her they were family. She enjoyed her conversations with her friends Bobbie and Roger over coffee and reading the newspaper before getting started for the day. 

In 1982, she lost her father and continued to be the provider for her mother until she passed away in 1992. In 1990, she became a Guadalupana for Blessed Sacrament Church and continued to serve her church until she was 73.

In 2006, she lost her husband Antonio and shortly retired following his death. During her retirement, she loved seeking Saturday morning garage sales, spending time with her grandkids and sitting out on her porch drinking iced tea.

She became a world traveler in 2022 traveling to Mahogany Bay, Belize and Cozumel.

Mrs. Garza is survived by her daughters, Dale Ann

(Martin) Borrayo; and Michelle (Cory) Lusk; grandchildren, Domenique (Tammi) Escobar, Trizton Robinson, Micah Lusk, Mary Margaret (Zach) Lazok, Andrew Borrayo, Albert (Daisy) Borrayo Micheala (Saul) Gallegos, Alexa Ortiz, and Kobi Daye; great-grandchildren, Kingston Robinson, Noah Lazok, Amelia Mae Lazok, Andrew Borrayo, Jr, Peyton Borrayo, Addilyn Borrayo, Madilynn Gallegos, Thomas Gallegos, and Santiago Gallegos; and sisters, Juanita Flores, Idalia (Arnold) Sandoval, and Maria Quezada.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Erineo and Maria Acuña; husband, Antonio Garza; brothers, Guadalupe, Eliverio and Alejandro  Acuña; and sisters, Amelia Riojas and Enedina Morales.

She died on Monday, September 25, 2023.

I’m so sorry for your loss Prima’s. My heart goes out to you. Your mama was a beautiful, sweet, and loving person. She had such a big loving and caring heart. She earned her place in Heaven so I know she is finally rejoicing with our lord and savior Jesus Christ.

I was so blessed to have you in my life and so honored to call you my Tia. I had nothing but true admiration for you, and everything you stood for. The times we spent together were wonderful times that I will cherish forever. I am going to miss you, but I know that you are in a beautiful place now and brings me comfort. To Dale Ann and Michelle, I love you both and I’m sorry for the pain you are going through right now. Wishing you peace and comfort in the days, weeks and months ahead. If there’s anything I can do, I’m only a phone call away. Love you both!❤️
