She was born November 10, 1935 to the late Francisco and Maria Iglesias Juarez in San Angelo, Texas.  Throughout her adult life she worked in several different job capacities, always helping others and always learning something new.  Her favorite job  was being  an Interpreter  at the Anson County Courthouse and the Anson County Health Department .  She was able to help others using her bilingual skills to translate.  She was a lifelong catholic and was a faithful member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church for 60 years, where she served as a greeter as long as she could drive. 

Lupe loved her family and considered them her greatest accomplishment. She was a wonderful,  loving and compassionate mother who cared very deeply for her family.  She was the foundation of her family through and through. 

Lupe was a lady of great faith.   She loved the Lord and believed that we should always trust in God with all our heart.  She always expressed how God loves everybody and we  should always treat others with kindness.  

She was a strong person with a big heart.  She was a “people” person.  She loved talking to and meeting new people.  She enjoyed her social time with her friends, eating out and attending the Red Hat Club meetings.  She will always be remembered for her sweet smile and loving personality.  When departing from close friends and family members she would always say, “I love you the most, because I’m the oldest.”  She will be missed.  

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of nearly 60 years, Bennett Covington “Chuck” Hildreth; siblings, Odilia Cruz, Francisco Juarez, Jr.,  Alvaro Juarez, Margaret Andros, Josephina Ramirez, Manuel Juarez, Francisca Cruz, Carolina Torres and Ramona Moreno.
