Maria Cukrowicz, of Yuma, went to be with Our Lord on May 18th, 2021.
After a brief illness, she passed in her home with close family by her
side.

After decades of living and working in South Bend, IN, Maria moved to
Yuma, AZ (2000) where she retired after years of driving school bus
for Yuma Schools District 1. She enjoyed her retirement caring for her
family and grandchildren.

Maria is preceded in death by her parents, Jesus D. and Catarina E.
Felan of South Bend, her 3 brothers, Mario A Felan Sr., Juan Felan
Sr., and David Felan and one daughter, Cynthia Gomez (Adalberto) all
from South Bend.

She is survived by her favorite uncle, Hector Espinoza, sisters,
Cecilia Crandall (Timothy), Rebecca Garcia (Raymond), Mary A Felan,
Mary H Perez and one brother, Richard Felan (Roseann) all of South
Bend, IN. Her surviving children include Fred R Jimenez (Cathy) of
South Bend, Sandra Watson (David) of Texas, Blanca Cole (Kevin) of
Yuma, AZ, and Belinda Nicholls of Mishawaka, IN. Maria loved and
enjoyed her 15 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and many nieces
and nephews, that all loved her dearly.

Maria was an exceptional person with a huge heart. Her personality
lite up a room when she walked in. She enjoyed talking with people
wherever she went. She loved music, dancing and spending time with
family. She was a strong Christian woman who is now home by the
Father's side. Until we meet again Momma, I love you so much- Blanca,
Kev, Nena and Bela.
