Della Mirabal, age 85, born Adelaida Esquíbel on August 1, 1927, to Ramon and Juanita Esquíbel in Abo, New Mexico, passed away on August 19, 2012, with her loving family at her side.
Della is survived by her husband of sixty-six years, Antonio José Mirabal, her nine children all of Albuquerque and brother, Levi Esquíbel and his wife, Suzi. Della's and Antonio's sons and wives are, Ruben Estevan and his wife, Vicki, Alberto Luis, Santiago and his wife, Loretta, Mike and his wife, Cathy, Lawrence and Edwin, their daughters and husbands are, Teresa Rice and her husband, Ron, Susan Gonzáles and her husband, Gil and Clair Sarracino and her husband, Mike.
Della was preceded in death by her parents, Ramon and Juanita, her brothers, José Salas, Nicolas Esquíbel and Silvestre Esquíbel and her sisters, Ascension Carrillo, Bennie Esquíbel and Patrocinia Padilla.
Della was the proud grandmother of nineteen grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
Della was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother who loved doting on her family. Her husband and family were the most important people in her life. Della was always available to her family to celebrate their successes and share in their tribulations. Even in times of personal hardship, her family came first. Della always made time to patiently and caringly listen to everyone's needs, and did whatever she could to help in times of need. While Della didn't garner great acclaim for her accomplishments in life, in the eyes and hearts of her family she achieved an even loftier goal by being a caring and loving wife and mother. Della fostered and nurtured the values and qualities in her children that helped them all achieve success in life. She was an example of perseverance in all that was good. The greatest gift she bestowed on her family was her love, which her family will cherish forever. Della's favorite pastimes were preparing some of the best Southwestern Mexican food on the planet for her family, an evening at the local casino and garage sales. In early retirement she and Antonio would spend winters in Las Vegas, Nevada, in their RV, and summers in her native New Mexico. Della will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her, but most of all by her life-long partner and husband, Antonio. Della was the light of his life and the one who made all things possible.
Della was a devout member of St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church in Rio Rancho where a Rosary will be said in her honor on Thursday, August 23, 2012 at 7:00 p.m. An opportunity for public viewing will follow the rosary. A Mass will be held to celebrate her life on Friday, August 24, 2012 at 10:30 a.m. at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church. Interment will follow the Mass at Vista Verde Memorial Park, 4310 Sara Road SE in Rio Rancho.∼Beloved Wife Mother and Grandmother
