Our precious Mom went to sleep comfortably in her own home surrounded by family, just as she wanted. She was a born-again Christian believer of her Lord Jesus Christ, and she was a caring homemaker. No one, including strangers, would leave her home on an empty stomach. She had the heart of a lamb and a lion. She was a faithful servant in the Catholic Church and known as a matriarch in the city. Nieves visited the sick and afflicted, she was always available to serve. She leaves behind a continuing legacy as she now joins the cloud of witnesses who surround us. Nieves is survived by her loving family, her children, daughter, Gloria Mireles of Surprise, AZ.; daughter, Nieves Medeiros (Steve) of Benton, AZ., daughter, Juana Arredondo of New Braunfels, TX., daughter, Tila Martinez of Lamesa, TX., daughter, Rosa Arredondo of Chandler, AZ., son, Lorenzo (Larry) Arredondo (Bertha) of Odessa, TX., son, Eddie Arredondo (Lourdes) of Boynton Beach, FL., son, Lasaro Arredondo, Jr. (Cindy) of Prosper, TX., son, Gilbert Arredondo (Sally) of Lubbock, TX., daughter-in-law, Sylvia Arredondo of Lamesa, TX.; 24 grandchildren, 32 great-grandchildren, and 7 great-great-grandchildren; lots of nieces, nephews, numerous relatives and friends.
