Cipriana Salaices Funeral Expenses

Devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, Cipriana Salaices died Sunday, June 27th at the age of 72. Cipriana is survived by her children Ana Isabel Salaices and Pablo Salaices, her granddaughters Emma Rose Rojas and Eliana Isabel Salaices, her daughter-in-law Maria D. Salaices, her eight siblings, numerous nieces, nephews, and loved ones.

Cipriana was born and raised in Jalpa, Juan Aldama, Zacatecas, Mexico to Carmen and Pablo Salaices. She emigrated to the United States in the 1970s where she planted roots in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas but frequently returned to her beloved hometown over the summer. She was a devoted Catholic and a parishioner of Santa Clara Catholic Church, attending services every Sunday as well as praying the full rosary every night.

Cipriana loved to spend time with family and those she loved. She enjoyed traveling with her children, making memories camping, sunbathing at the beach, and exploring new places. She was the life of the party, she always had a smile on her face, had an amazing sense of humor -- she frequently left people in tears from laughing so hard, and you could always catch her on the dance floor at any family function. She would often be found doing crossword puzzles at home, walking around in her immaculately kept garden, or spending time with her family pets Cowboy, Flor, and Perla.

Cipriana knew that family was of the utmost importance and made everyone she met feel like a member of the family. Cipriana led by example and taught family and friends what it meant to be strong, have faith, and love beyond all else. She will be immeasurably missed by all that were blessed to know and experience her love.
