Virginia Ontiveros, 91, died Sept. 12, 2026, in Amarillo, Texas. 

She was born Jan. 11, 1935 to Felix Pecina and Concepcion Quiroz.

She was a devoted homemaker who cared lovingly for her children and grandchildren. Her days were filled with purpose and sacrifice. She rose early to cook breakfast for her children, then spent the day working hard in the fields.

She held a deep love for her husband, Patricio Ontiveros, until his passing in September 2020.

Her presence brought comfort, her concern reflected the depth of her heart, and her example leaves behind a legacy of strength, compassion, and selfless devotion.

Survivors include 11 children: Daniel Ontiveros, Garden City, Gregoria Lara and husband, Juan, Garden City, Felix Ontiveros, Dallas, Amando Ontiveros and wife, Maria, Garden City, Ismael Ontiveros and wife, Julie, Amarillo, Texas, Elizabeth Ontiveros, Garden City, Fermina Espinosa and husband, Anthony, Garden City, Deyna Herrada and husband, Steven, Garden City, Dana Ontiveros, Abilene, Texas, Edith Espinosa and husband, Adam, Amarillo, Texas, and Vanessa Ontiveros, Amarillo, Texas; siblings, Esther Herrera and Simon Pecina; 34 grandchildren; and 22 great-grandchildren.

She was also preceded in death by her parents; four children; and two siblings.
