Petra “Pat” V. Hurtado
Our beloved mother, Petra “Pat” V. Hurtado passed away on January 17, 2021 at the age of 72. She was born in Fentress, Texas, as the middle child to the late Blas and Frances Valdez.
Pat was a home caregiver all of her life. She found joy in helping others and always enjoyed good music and dancing. Some would say, she was the life of the party.

A visitation will be held on Friday, January 29, 2021 from 5-9 with a Rosary at 7PM recited by Father Cleo Cruz at McCurdy Funeral Home. A Mass of a Christian Burial will begin at 10 am on Saturday, January 30th at Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church in Martindale with Father Ralph Padilla.
