March 1, 1944 - July 6, 2015

Maria Concepcion Campos stepped into the arms of our Lord Jesus Christ and her late husband on July 6, 2015 surrounded by her family.

She was born in Tamaulipas, Mexico on March 1, 1944 to Aminta Rangel and Reyes Cruz Espino.

Maria worked from an early age to help her parents raise her younger brothers and sisters. In 1978 she moved to the US to live with her younger brother and family. She later met and married the love of her life Eusebio Campos in 1982 and became a stepmother to his children, Oscar, Louis, Maria, Alice, Idalia, Rosie and Daniel who welcomed her and she loved them.

Se was by far the best cook ever! She loved cooking, gardening, traveling, and caring for her family.

Maria & Eusebio were married twenty years when he unexpectedly passed away in April, 2002. Heartbroken she spent her remaining years with family and traveling yet always looking forward to the day she would join him again.

She was an active member of St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Pasco and former member of Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church in Moses Lake.

She was preceded in death by her parents Reyes and Aminta Cruz, Eusebio, stepson Louis, and her sister Maxi Guevarra.

She is survived by her brothers Heriberto (Lupe), Reyes (Otilia), Genovevo, Gilberto, Luis, sisters, Laura and Zapopa (Oscar). Stepchildren, Oscar Campos, Maria Chase (Mike), Alice Rendon (John), Idalia Campos, Rosie Deleon (Sergio), & Daniel Campos. Nieces and nephews Adriana Saenz (Ricardo), Ricardo Jr., Cristian and Alyssa Saenz, Amy and Macito Sanchez, Eddie Jr. (Evangelina), Gavin and Chloe Cruz, whom she loved all as her own. Grandchildren Brandon & Jarred Rendon, Isrsel & Cassandra Botello, Cecilio Lopez, Andres & Sergio Deleon, Chris Campos-Martinez, Dezmond Campos. Great grandchildren, Zane & Sloan Rendon, Alex Alvarez, Alora & Adan Botello, Clarissa & Louis Campos. Numerous nieces and nephews and extended family in the US and Mexico.

We will miss her warmth and love she unconditionally had for all of us. Maria was also lovingly cared for in her last months by her beloved niece, Adriana Saenz.
