Rebecca Terrazas left this earth to take her place with her Lord and Savior on September 18, 2013. She was preceded in death by her parents Elisa and Jacinto Castro, her brother and sisters Ahart Castro, Louisa Derengowski, Carrie Garcia, Emma Swaim and Antoinette Castro Converse, her sons Gregory Noel and Henry Jr. Terrazas and her grandson Stephen Rene Morales. She is lovingly remembered and survived by her sister Mary Jane Talamantez, eight of her ten children, Cynthia Louise Nieto, Delma Jean Chavenson, Marie Clarice Alvarado, Michael James Terrazas, Timothy Terrazas, Sharon Rose Parra, Carol Joyce Escobedo and Philip Carl Terrazas, their devoted spouses and loving children. Those children include 18 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren and 11 great-great grandchildren. The blessed days Beca was granted were spent building a close knit family and serving The Lord. Over 40 years in the Saint Bonaventure parish, she dedicated herself to teaching catechism classes to thousands of children, serving as President for the Guadalupana Federation, being a Minister of the Word and of the Eucharist and bringing beautiful music into the church by singing with the choir. Beca's other passion was rooting for her Spurs. Although she shares a birthday with Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker was her favorite player. Any game day, you would find her sitting intently, updating her statistic notebook to include not only scores but other facts; like who had fouls and three-point shots. Many beautiful things have been said about her like, "She never said a cross word about anyone", "She is the epitome of what the church parish strived to be", "She accomplished her goals and did it with class" and "She will be seated in the V.I.P section in heaven". As the pool of Heaven's Angels grows more beautiful with her presence, her family and friends realize that they had the rare pleasure to live among an Angel on Earth. The family would like to extend a special thanks to the loving hands that cared for her over the past year; especially Cibolo Creek Nursing Home and Alamo Hospice. If floral arrangements are kindly considered, please send to Brookehill Funeral Home.
