Felma J. Rios
Felma J. Rios, 71, was born in Pasadena Texas on July 28, 1950, on September 2, 2021 she was called home to be with our Lord in Heaven. Felma was a loving mother to her children and a fantastic grandmother to her grandchildren. Felma’s greatest joys in life were being with her children and grandchildren, long conversations with her siblings, playing games on her phone all while ignoring your call, watching history shows, animal shows and having Sunday morning breakfast with her husband Antonio.
Felma was a firm believer in God and prayer, she prayed heavily for anybody she came across, whether she knew you or not, she never stopped praying or praising the Lord even on the days she was unable to attend church. Felma was a member of The House of Refuge/Casa de Refugio and thoroughly enjoyed her time with her brothers and sister in Christ and she loved to watch her husband play in the band. Felma J. Rios touched many lives with her comforting words, her caring nature and by always putting all her faith and trust in the Lord. Felma will truly be missed for her genuine love, her laugh, her silliness, her dedication, and faithfulness to God, along with many attributions about her.

Sister Felma was a true prayer warrior. That was one thing we will always remember about her. She also loved to sing and I enjoyed singing with her in the choir so many years ago at the House of Refuge. We always enjoyed talking about being in Girl’s Auxiliary together. How we would laugh. I will remember that laugh!
Sister Felma will always remain in our hearts.
Joel, Roger, Naomi and family, So sorry for your loss. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love and hugs,
Adan and Kathy Ramirez
