Raquel Villaseñor

April 23, 1964 – January 21, 2023

Raquel Tovar Villaseñor, 58, passed away peacefully on Jan. 21, 2023. She was born in Mission, Texas on April 23, 1964, to Evaristo Perez Tovar and Paula Sanchez Tovar. She married Mario Villaseñor on June 25, 1983, and had four beautiful children. With her family, Raquel resided in Moses Lake since May of 1996.

As a faithful member of her local community church, El Sendero De La Cruz (Restore City Church), her life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, Isaiah 41:10 which reads, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Her faith and love for God were evident in the way she served others.

Many would agree that her smile and laughter were contagious. Her kindness inspired confidence. Her profession as an educator allowed her to make a significant impression on her many students as well as those who surrounded her.

She is survived by her husband Mario; children Mario (Sarah), Jazmin (Vernell), Lily (Mario) and Caroline; her grandchildren Kailanie, Aaralyn, Nehemiah, Benjamin and Theodore; her mother Paula Tovar; her siblings Daniel (Paula), Esther, Juan (Rita), Josue (Carmen), Abel (Helen), Ruth (Dante) and Elias (Leli) along with many nieces and nephews. She is preceded by her father Evaristo Perez Tovar, brother-in-law Ruben Vargas and nephew Jacob Tovar. All of these she loved and cherished deeply.
