She was born on February 9, 1941, in Jourdanton, Texas, to Alfredo Mendiola and Clara Guerrero. Mary's passing leaves a void in the hearts of all those who knew and loved her. Mary's passion for creativity and design shone brightly throughout her life. With her unique imagination, she transformed her own home into a work of art, from the custom wallpaper that adorned the walls to the glitter-filled fabric trim that added a touch of magic to every room. Her dedication to detail and her unwavering commitment to beauty left an indelible mark on every space she touched. In addition to her talents as an interior designer, Mary had a knack for doll restoration. At flea markets, she would uncover dolls that were missing limbs, bringing them home and lovingly piecing them together from various sources to recreate their charm. Each doll became a masterpiece, dressed in clothes specially designed and created by Mary herself. Her collection of over a hundred beautiful dolls stands as a testament to her skill and passion. Mary found solace and joy in nature. Gardening in her yard was a cherished pastime, with Mary tending to the plants with love and care. Whether she was trimming weeds, pulling out stubborn roots, or blowing leaves with her blower, Mary's green thumb was evident in the vibrant blossoms that graced her surroundings. She appreciated the beauty of the outdoors and often indulged in leisurely walks, taking in the serenity of the world around her. Mary's faithful canine companion, Chico, was her trusted confidant and best friend. Together, they shared many cherished moments, and Chico provided unwavering companionship and loyalty that warmed Mary's heart. Their bond was truly special, a testament to Mary's loving nature and ability to form deep connections. While Mary was not a member of a specific church, her strong belief in our Lord Jesus Christ guided her actions and brought comfort to her soul. She found strength and solace in her faith, which sustained her throughout her life. Mary will also be remembered for her resourcefulness and independence. She undertook various household chores with gusto, fearlessly climbing onto rooftops to patch leaks and ensuring her home was in perfect order. Her handy talents with tools were matched only by her unwavering determination to keep her surroundings impeccable. Mary's memory will forever be cherished by her best friend, Amy Lou Polk, and her faithful dog, Chico, who stood by her side through thick and thin. Amy Lou was more than a friend; she was a sister in spirit, offering unwavering support and shared memories that will endure. Mary's life was also enriched by her good friend, Fernando Reyna, who brought joy and laughter into her world.
