Remembering Lucinda Madrid: A Life Filled with Love and Laughter

Lucinda Madrid, a beloved beautiful lady, who survived 2 rounds of ovarian cancer passed away on May 2, 2024, in Dallas from a long battle of dementia, surrounded by her loving family. She rejoins her husband Guillermo "Willie" Madrid, son Guillermo "Willie" Madrid Jr., daughter Lucy Knaack and siblings Juan Benitez, Arturo Garcia, and Gilberto Garibay.

Born in El Paso, TX, on February 4, 1929, to Soledad Murillo and Jose Garcia, Lucinda grew up with her three brothers and mother in El Paso, TX.

Her natural love for children led her to work in daycares in both El Paso and Dallas for many years. She was also an active member of the senior center community and a skilled negotiator in sales.

In January of 1945, Lucinda married Willie Madrid, and together they raised seven children and one grandson. She is loving remembered by her children Oscar (Yvonne), Jose "Joe" (Delores), Carlos, Christina (Robert), David (Robin), Raul (Maggie), 16 grandchildren, 18 great-grandchildren, and 8 great-great-grandchildren.

Her green thumb brought beauty to the world through her gardening. Her zest for life brought smiles to all with her line dancing. She was well known for her bargain hunting and playing her chance with luck at cards and casinos. Most importantly, she was always there for her family.

Lucinda Madrid's legacy is one of love, laughter, and unwavering dedication to her family and community. She will be deeply missed and will forever remain in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing her.
