Francisca Wawroski Obituary

FRANCISCA "FRANCES" GAMBOA WAWROSKI
05/09/1948 - 07/17/2025
"I have fought the good fight; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith. Now waiting for me is the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day-and not only to me, but to all those who have eagerly longed for his appearance." 2 Timothy 4:7-8
Into the loving and tender arms of our beloved Mother Mary, our beloved Francisca Gamboa Wawroski, entered that promise of salvation and eternal rejoicing, on the Feast Day of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, which also was the 11th Anniversary of the death of her beloved husband of 41 years of marriage, Master Chief Petty Officer Francis L. Wawroski Jr. Frances wouldn't have had it any other way than to enter the gates of heaven the same day that her companion and devoted husband was also welcomed into his eternal reward.
Visitation for Frances will take place on Monday, July 21, 2025, from 5 pm to 9 pm at Hillside Funerals and Cremations; 310 W. Hillside Rd., Laredo, TX 78041, where a Vigil for the Deceased and Rosary will be offered by Rev. Deacon Mr. Roger Martinez Jr.
The funeral procession will depart the funeral chapel at 8:30 am on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, to Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church, where a Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Rev. Leszek J. Waclawik at 10 am.
The Rite of Committal and Interment will take place at 10 am on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, at Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery, where she will be laid to rest with her beloved Francis, together at last.
You may extend your condolences to the family during the scheduled services, or, if you so wish, you extend them virtually on her obituary, which can be found at: www.hillsidefuneral.com
