Florinda “Mina” Mora Sanchez, 67, passed away on July 6, 2021, in Houston, Texas. She was born on September 7, 1953, in Waco, Texas.

She loved her family, fashion, shoes, cooking and feeding other people. But above all else it was her grandchildren that were her pride and joy. Mina was a generous and compassionate spirit, a loving mother, sister, daughter, a caring aunt, and was beloved by many friends.

Mina was preceded in death by her mother Dorothy Rose Morales, her husband Reyes Sanchez, her daughter Michelle Marina Mora-Lopez, her grandparents, Regina & Juan Lopez, Isabel & Andres Peña and her brothers, Arturo Peña, and Andrew Lee Peña.

    Mina was a beautiful person inside and out. I feel so blessed to have a cousin that was so kind and sincere. When I was a younger girl I remember her letting her daughter Michelle and I play in her make up and hi heels. I loved spending the night at her house. Memories that I will keep close to my heart forever❤️
    I love you and miss you Mina

    There is no words to describe my beautiful best friend! The biggest heart and beautiful heart I ever knew! She was such loving person and a person that cared so much for people specially her Grandkids! Mina and I had so many moments of good times and sad times, but always supporting each other with beautiful words and with Gods prayers. I lost a big piece in my heart but that piece of heart will be filled with great memories that we had together in the 32 years that we knew each other. I will miss my wonderful friend so much!! Rest In Peace my beautiful friend and enjoy the family in heaven, we will meet again!! In Gods words!??❤️???
